How do you initiate the shutdown?
Which desktop environment are you using, are you running wayland or XOrg?

using the power button, it does the same from the top right battery icon too, as it does the same popup.

Did you ever wait a minute to verify whether the system shuts down?

On my system it does shut down, but the counter is not updated every second but only 60 - 50 - 40 - 30 - 20 - 10 - 9 - 8 - 7 ...
