Yep, you are right, the SYS_5V remains on after a sudo halt or pressing the PB for more than 8 seconds. Since the 3V3B is derived and enabled from the SYS_5V, it also remains powered. Looks like we need to also turn off the AC_EN and USB_EN bits in the PPATH register on the TPS65217C PMC. I¹ve copied both Robert and Gerald to see if this is something they want to fix.
