I am struggling with this bug as well.

Ubuntu version: 16.04
APC unit: BE600M1 - 
http://www.apc.com/shop/us/en/products/APC-Back-UPS-BE600M1-600VA-120V-1-USB-charging-port/P-BE600M1
APC connection: USB
Computer: Intel NUC6i5SYK

I can successfully shutdown the battery backup unit if I shutdown the
apcupsd daemon, run apctest, and then select "1)  Test kill UPS power".
After 90 seconds the battery backup will fully shutoff.

However, if I restart apcupsd and then pull the battery backup power the
computer will follow the apcupsd.conf instructions and properly
shutdown, however the battery backup will never power off.

Has anyone discovered any workaround to try and issue the killpower
command earlier in the Ubuntu shutdown process? I'm just looking for a
short term quick fix for some units in the wild. Thanks for any
workaround tips folks can provide.
