It definitely is something that KMail/Kontact does wrong.

Left-clicking a pdf attachment in the mail head is opening some dialog
to choose an application from. For me, this is PDF-specific.

If for instance the attachment is an office document, I get a
four-button-dialog with save/open in libre office/open with.../cancel.
If I chose "open with" I get the application picker that I get instantly
for PDF.

If I right-click the PDF attachement and choose "open", okular starts.
Opening PDFs from dolphin also works.

Mara
