3.7.x (x > 0) poweroff failure

I hope that this is the right place, but I am using a Samsung Series 7 Gamer
(i7 + Nvidia) with proprietary graphics drivers. Using 3.7.0 when restarting
the machine or powering down, things work as expected. However, in 3.7.7 and
3.7.8 (which is what I have tested so far), the machine does not power down
afterwards, and when X stops, I do not see the console, just a blinking
cursor in the upper left hand corner. This has not occurred before in any
other previous kernel that I have tried, including 3.2.29 and I think 3.6.

Could anyone help direct me to identifying the problem and whether there is
a problem on my end or if this is some sort of regression in the 3.7.x
series?
