Please paste the results of the following commands:

/usr/bin/xdg-mime query default application/pdf
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/xdg-mime query default application/pdf

(both should return the desktop file of your preferred pdf viewer)

if it's ok, maybe the mime type is wrong:

try:

xdg-mime query filetype /name/of/one/of/your.pdf

it should say "application/pdf"
