First of all, evince and auctex communicate over the session dbus for forward/backward search. And apparently your WM without a DE doesn't start a session bus. But that can be fixed, I think. I'm not sure, but wherever you start qtile (maybe from .xsession or so), you might want to try to start "dbus-run-session -- qtile" instead. See https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-run-session.1.html That would fire up a dbus session and qtile, and then my hope is that forward/backward search with evince work as usual.

Interesting, I like xpdf because it is lightweight, but how do you manage inverse and forward search in your pdf files with xpdf? I switched from xpdf to okular (which is recently quite buggy) and then to evince which is not as fast as xpdf but supports both searches.
