I've been able to reproduce this with gdm3 3.8.4-8.1 installed in a VM.
I see no logind session registered at all.
After upgrading to 3.8.4-9 I can shutdown properly. I think this bug
has the same root cause as #747210.
Could you please try to reproduce this bug? Otherwise I'll merge it
with #747210.
Cheers,
