I can confirm this too. It's quite annoying to hear unwanted beeps from the PC speaker especially when the family would like to sleep and I have to turn off the PC :) It was "just" a single beep just before upstart progress bar appeared, but since a week or so, it's not three beeps, two of them are quite closely in team, and one after a moment. I don't think it's a good idea to bother users with strange system beep sequences at shutdown, they should be avoided, the graphical representation (upstart) is far enough to know the system is about shutting down, and voice feedback can be very annoying (I think PCs should never use the system beeper anyway, maybe just in fatal cases, like BIOS detected POST problems and so on).
