Really? I see this all the time with my VM when I shutdown via LG.

Huh, so this is a bit more involved than I thought. I just tried again to confirm (still on B4).

The first time I tried I just got the Looking Glass splash as soon as I clicked shut down. When I cancelled that and tried again I was able to see both the throbber and the prompt. When I let the VM sit idle for a while before trying again, the LG splash was back. Rebooting the VM also seems to bring back the splash reliably.
