1.3.3 is ancient. Please update to something newer, if this used to work and an update broke it, you may want to contact the Kubuntu people
I use that version of okular all the time with no such issues. Additionally, if this was a generic problem or one caused by an update, then it is highly likely there would be multiple reports of this, and I have not seen that. It sounds very much like some issue specific to your system.
