WoW prox sensor on the nose gear, shuts down the APU on oleo extension.

It also shuts down the APU if a lot of freight is loaded with no pax to balance it out. Half a dozen beefy blokes on the flight deck (squeezy!) will allow APU restart but the darned thing'll shut down again as they leave.

There may be no connection but way back when, I experienced several depressurisations when the main door seal would deflate passing about F170 on descent. A sticky door seal valve as best I can recall.
