Entering BIOS usually by pressing Del button when computer starting. Go to Advanced Settings and make sure APM is Enabled.

 

If you have installed Windows Operating System, and you succeed to shutdown your computer on Windows, it means your APM is Enabled.

 

If it still don’t fix your problem, try it in terminal,

$ sudo gedit /etc/init.d/alsa-utils

 

Change gedit with your favorite text editor. This will open alsa-utils or if it doesn’t exist, create new one.

Type,

ifconfig wlan0 down
ifconfig eth0 down
EXITSTATUS=0

 

Save file, and try to shutdown Ubuntu.
