Comment 8 for bug 46571

I too can confirm that this occurs in Edgy (though it doesn't drop to vt1 anymore). I also don't think that X/xfce4/etc. is shutting down correctly at all because music from my X app is still playing until the very end (it would have stopped playing if it had been killed). This also leads to other problems like application settings that only get saved during a proper exit of the program being lost. I dunno if this is a separate bug but it all seems to be related.
