Absolutely. This proves that the problem lies on the Ubuntu side. If /dev/sda2 is present in /etc/fstab on your Ubuntu system, either directly or indirectly via a UUID, and Ubuntu mounts that file system automatically on boot, then it should umount it automatically on shutdown. That is obviously not happening. The problem should be pursued on the Ubuntu forums. -- .''`.
