Kubuntu/Ubuntu does not remove everything from memory at shutdown

I have to Shutdown and then switch on again to do a proper reboot from within (K)Ubuntu. This does not happen with Mandriva. However on my desktop system a reboot from Kubuntu works fine. I suspect it is an ACPI bug and I reported it to Ubuntu about, oh, two millennia ago.

No, it is not a Windows 7 problem, it is Kubuntu/Ubuntu not doing things 
properly with the hardware when it shuts down.
If I shut Kubuntu/Ubuntu down and reboot into Windows 7 I cannot get any 
sound from the soundcard. If I shut Kubuntu/Ubuntu down and reboot 
Mandriva to the kdm login screen, and shut Mandriva down (it does a 
forced close of any active applications at shutdown) and reboot into 
Windows 7 I get sound from the sound card. Also if I boot the system 
into Mandriva only and reboot into Windows I never have any issues with 
Windows 7 producing sound.
Hence it is clearly a Kubuntu/Ubuntu problem of not forcibly closing 
applications still active as it is about to reboot, as opposed to asking 
applications to shutdown as indicated by shutdown messages.

Steve
