I have tried gubs 2.16.2, 2.16.0, 2.13 and the official lilypond 2.16.2. Nothing seems to work. When I kill lilypond at the command line or I close the progressbar window then it opens up the pdf in the printview. I think the problem is in print.c somewhere because if I export to pdf everything works as expected.
