I am running Ubuntu 18.04 (desktop) in a VM using Debian 9 and KVM as the hypervisor but running virsh shutdown BS-MS01 I get a message saying the domain is shutting down but the VM is actually still sat on the login screen.
I have confirmed acpid is installed and running on the guest:
ms01admin@BS-MS01:~$ sudo service acpid status
● acpid.service - ACPI event daemon
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/acpid.service; disabled; vendor preset: e
Active: active (running) since Sat 2019-02-16 20:33:52 GMT; 2h 17min ago
Main PID: 716 (acpid)
Tasks: 1 (limit: 4614)
CGroup: /system.slice/acpid.service
└─716 /usr/sbin/acpid
The VM has been created with </acpi> in the xml too:

I've even added acpi=force to grub but have not had any luck getting it to work and I've run out of ideas.
Anyone got any ideas?
