Running KDE, I don't see this behaviour.

I think you want to kill the 'kde session' that is started by the kde application(s) during the shutdown process. I'm not certain which process to look for, I'll have a look later when I'm with my desktop.

Alternatively, kill all programs actually using akonadi. Like kmail and all the systray apps from the kdepim set.
