This started to happen to me a couple of days ago... i'm using 8.10 (amd64).
anyway, i changed the first line of the /etc/init.d/alsa-utils file to:
#!/bin/sh -x

so i noticed when "freezing" at shutdown, actually does not freeze, is doing something... now i don't know if all that, is logged somewhere, but i tried doing a sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils stop and copying the output to this file i'm attaching.

The part that goes from line 75 to line 190 is the part that takes forever... at least when the system is going to reboot (or shutdown)... i'm seeing each part of that (Master, PCM, Synth, etc) that takes like 30 seconds. (when doing /etc/init.d/alsa-utils stop didn't happened, ie it took like 5 seconds to finish everything)

ok, hope this helps...
