I would love to answer you Christopher M. Penalver (penalvch), but I no longer own the machine that had this issue. I owned the Acer Aspire 10.1" AO531h. It would shut down properly but not restart properly. I bought the Compaq CQ57 229wm model, and it no longer had this issue.
So it is clearly linked to the hardware on the Aspire.
I mention again though that at that time, the Aspire worked beautifully with virtually all other Linux distributions, it just didn't work with Ubuntu 12.04.
