Confirming this on Kubuntu Jaunty with KDE 4.3 installed from PPA. The first attempt to logout gets the confirm dialog; subsequent attempts do not get the confirm dialog. There appears to be no way to troubleshoot this bug. Shutting down from the command line works normally. Attempting a shutdown with OpenOffice open with an unsaved file prompted me to save the file, whereupon it saved the file and closed OpenOffice, but the machine did not shutdown, nor did Firefox (which was also open) close.
