I was able to get my computer to reliably shutdown by doing two things:

 1. Update the intramfs:

        $ sudo update-initramfs -u

    I'm not sure why this was necessary, since I have the default 21.04
kernel:

        5.11.0-16-generic

 2. Add `acpi=force` to /etc/default/grub

        GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi=force
modprobe.blacklist=nouveau"

    ...and update grub:

        $ sudo update-grub

    I'm not sure why this is necessary, since I have a newer BIOS.
    This has never been necessary for prior versions of Ubuntu.
    Nevertheless, my laptop will consistently not shut down without this 
parameter.
