It sounds like your guests aren't running the ACPI daemon.

The way that the "shutdown" command works, is that it sends some kind of ACPI 
"shut down" signal to the guest.

Works nicely for most things, but if the guest doesn't have something listening 
for ACPI events (ie acpid on Linux), it'll just ignore it.

Does that help? :)
