Problematic PDF file using CM fonts

When I open a PDF file created with LyX which uses Computer Modern fonts by
default, I cannot copy text out from Evince. For example when I create a simple
PDF containing "poppler test page" text and I try to copy all text, it results:

♣♦♣♣❧❡r t❡st ♣❛❣❡

However, when tell LyX to use Latin Modern fonts, result is OK:

poppler test page

Both files are rendered fine however copying is impossible if CM is used.

I have attached the problematic file that makes us of Computer Modern fonts.
When I uncompress the files, I can see same text in both of them:
