Tramp talks to a remote host only in case it sends a command. But I'm
not aware which command is sent when quitting Emacs.

Maybe some of your remote buffers weren't saved when you quit Emacs?
Then it is clear that Emacs tries to save such buffers when you quit,
and Tramp is not able to do the job.

Could you, please, set tramp-verbose to 6, and rerun the scenario?
I'ld like to see the Tramp debug buffer then.
