Microsoft has a patch program to solve the shutdown problems on some machines.  Find it at their site, download it and install it according to their instructions.

There is a category "Exit Windows" in Sounds.  By default it has no sound assigned to it, but if you highlight it, you can assign a sound.  "Logoff.wav" might be a good choice.  If you don't have the "Jungle" "Musica" "Robotz" and "Utopia" theme sets of sounds showing as choices, you can add them from your Win98 CD using Start/Control Panel/Add-Remove Programs/Windows Setup.
