Confirmed.
This is because `ob-shell-async-chunk-callback' never returns a list.

In `org-babel-sh-evaluate', there is a part that is responsible for
detecting the result type:

(when (and results value-is-exit-status)
      (setq results (car (reverse (split-string results "\n" t)))))
    (when results
      (let ((result-params (cdr (assq :result-params params))))
        (org-babel-result-cond result-params
          results
          (let ((tmp-file (org-babel-temp-file "sh-")))
            (with-temp-file tmp-file (insert results))
            (org-babel-import-elisp-from-file tmp-file)))))

This part is skipped for :async results.
