All, If you are or were experiencing this delay, there is a related bug report -- bug 301430 -- concerning the omission of localhost in the ipv6 part of /etc/hosts. While bug 274995 is fixed by the update to alsa- tools, the delay uncovered by bug 274995 was only experienced by those of us who had bug 301430 as well. Bug 301430 is marked as "incomplete" and will expire unfixed without confirmation that it affects others. I suspect that everyone who noticed a delay during shutdown owing to 274995 also has an IPv6 misconfiguration in the /etc/hosts file, even if they're not using IPv6 and even if the delay is now fixed. Please help out, check, and advise.
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO: 1. Even if the latest alsa-tools update fixed your problem, please check your /etc/hosts and verify whether or not it was set up correctly. A CORRECTLY configured file originally had (or has) this line (the whitespace-separated word localhost is included among the hostnames in the ipv6 section of /etc/hosts): ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback An INCORRECTLY configured file had or has this line (the whitespace-separated word localhost is NOT included among the hostnames): ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback 2. If your system was or is INCORRECTLY configured, please visit bug 301430 and indicate so via a comment. The /etc/hosts file is created as part of the network installation and configuration. It would be interesting to know whether your install was an upgrade or fresh install. Look for any other developer questions you might be able to answer or add your other relevant insights or observations.
