We do this all the time and don't see this issue. Mind you we never deployed 
with v15. What works for us with at least v12-14 and v16R2 is to use an 
internal webarea and open a blank URL first before opening the path to the PDF, 
i.e.

WA OPEN URL(*;"webarea_name";"about:blank")
WA OPEN URL(*;"webarea_name";<full path to PDF>)

This is also using the built-in Preview viewer rather than Adobe or some other 
viewer.

cheers
