"Fixed intermittent S3 hang during the resume cycle." relates to the system resuming operation from a sleep condition
and has noting to do with a non power on condition
Yup, I didn't think the S3 power state was related, unless the PC actually goes into sleep mode by default even when you shutdown? It's possible, but unlikely I guess.
