--- Comment #10 from Albert Astals Cid <aacid at kde.org> ---
I think the problem here is that Okular/poppler consider the Color of the
Annotation to be its background but if you read the PDF spec it says it should
be 

"
used for the following purposes:
• The background of the annotation’s icon when closed
• The title bar of the annotation’s pop-up window
• The border of a link annotation
"

So there's a problem in the assumption of what the field does that ends up in
this mismatch, not really simple to fix sadly
