I pulled the evince source and there does not appear to be any direct
support for portals, and sandbox support is an untasked item on their
roadmap. However it still may be possible via the gnome libs, or via
dlopen. Those routes would need to be further investigated.

Title:
  Clicking a hyperlink in a PDF fails to open it if the default browser
  is a snap

Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  This is related to bug #1792648. After fixing that one (see discussion
  at https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/evince/merge_requests/1),
  clicking a hyperlink in a PDF opens it correctly if the default
  browser is a well-known application (such as /usr/bin/firefox), but it
  fails to do so if the default browser is a snap (e.g. the chromium
  snap).

  This is not a recent regression, it's not working on bionic either.
