Next to the "Viewer:" select box is a field for optional arguments. I'm 
not sure why, but on my system that field is blank and cannot be edited 
for three choices (None, xreader and evince) and editable if I select 
"Custom". (I don't have okular installed.) I assume the --unique switch 
and the mystery string appear in that field. Assuming so, is it editable 
on your part? If yes, try deleting the contents and see if that helps.
