You didn't mention what display (login) manager you're using but if
memory serves me right, slim is the default for Xfce4 on Devuan.

If you're using slim, then you can

- log out of your session
- log in as the 'halt' user with the root password

and that shuts down and powers off the system.

Works for me.

Hope this helps,
