That's to be expected.  Lots of devices will shut down after userspace
told it to power down.  It was a feature request that Thunar and
Nautilus added a year or so ago.

Not all devices will do this, as their firmware does not support the
powerdown command, which is why older devices do not act like this.

If you don't like this, don't eject the device :)
