I upgraded from 21.10 to 22.04. The issue happens when using a Wayland session or an Xorg session. My userdir is a local one. There is nothing special about my configuration. One thing that might be noteworthy is that before upgrading I was using the night mode of Evince and now it is stuck in night mode. I can disable night mode but this is not saved, meaning that when I close Evince and open it again it is back to night mode.
