I use a workaround for it because I also lost previously some meta-data for PDF(coming back to the "old" name that I had changed).

Now before sending a pdf file with calibre, I first edit the meta-data with a freeware called A-PDF INFO Changer using Wine on my Ubuntu. After that, I remarked that my changes are taken into account in a stable way.

Hope this could help.
