After Lollipop 5.1.1 update, pdf viewers are not recognized

A

AC Question

I have adobe acrobat reader on my Samsung Galaxy S5 (ATT) and I have been able to view all pdf files from email attachments and from Chrome browser with no problems. Two days ago, the Lollipop update 5.1.1 finally went through, and now I can't view pdf files. Seems I can "save" attachments, then open the file within the Adobe app, but the "view" option just gives me "Cannot find application to open file" response.
Can't open pdf links within Chrome at all. Seems not related to mail app or browser app, but somehow updating software caused all pdf viewers (I used to be able to choose between Adobe, Google pdf view and Polaris) to not be recognized.
