Hello, Urre5!
Yes, this is actually expected behavior if you are powering the Raspberry Pi Zero directly (not through our Freeplay Zero PCB). The issue is that the software all shuts down and attempts to kill the power but the power remains on. Once you connect the Freeplay Zero to the Pi Zero and power it through the MicroUSB (or battery) on the Freeplay Zero board, then the software can send the signal to the Freeplay hardware to cut the power.
I'm glad you went through the process of testing with HDMI first. Now you know that the rest of it is working properly. I'm sorry that this piece was confusing, though. I'm also sorry that it took me a couple days to reply. I am typically able to reply every weekday, but the weekends are sometimes tough. I didn't see your post until Monday morning.
