For me, I get
M-! xdg-open /tmp/test.pdf works
M-x shell <ret> xdg-open /tmp/test.pdf works
M-& xdg-open /tmp/test.pdf fails
M-x eshell <ret> xdg-open /tmp/test.pdf fails
The two which fail do not report any error - just now pdf viewer open.
I also have no problems with org export menu when I choose export to pdf
and open.
This was on a Ubuntu 20.10, latest Emacs 27 (27.5.91), mate DE and
default shell zsh.
