Does it work if you manually configure an "on lid close event → shutdown" and then close the lid of your laptop or this fails in the same way? It can be some sort of bug from gnome-power-manager. Wow, there are indeed many bugs reported :-O http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=gnome-power-manager I would take a carefully read on those that are related to your problem and see if there's any bypass that can work for you :-?
