I recently had the same problem, on Arch Linux with Emacs 27.1. If you
run xdg-open from an eshell, the problem should be the same. It should
also go away if you replace "xdg-open" with "setsid xdg-open".
I ended up doing
(push '("\\.pdf\\'" . "evince %s") org-file-apps)
to solve it for my case. It would have been preferable to change how the
default app is being resolved from "xdg-open" to "setsid xdg-open", but
I haven't been able to.
