Yes. I called evince from the command line in an xterm running under fvwm.
I also call up the xterm and fvwm from startx (via ~/.xinitrc) when I log in.

Interesting. I run evince from the command line routinely. e.g.:
evince meet.greet.2025.02.27.pdf &
I get the process number, and that's all.
Are you running evince and X as the same user?
