No problems here on oS 11.1, KDE 4.2.2.  Perhaps you somehow got two okular 
binaries and the wrong one is being invoked or your association is subtly 
wrong?  Perhaps you could post the output of 'locate okular' and provide more 
details about your MIME-type associations, including where you are viewing 
them.
