AFAIK apmd is called first upon sleep, and only after apmd "OK's" the
switch, the system really goes to sleep and calls all hardware to shut
down. You could enable the ALSA_KILL_MODE hack in
/etc/alsa/alsa-base.conf so all sound programs will be killed before
shutdown. If that still doesn't work, it looks to me like your system
doesn't have /etc/apm/event.d/alsa.
