Here's a PDF file, generated from LO, with a working hyperlink:
<http://cjoint.com/14fe/DBtu6CLtlPW.htm>
(if you'd like to open it, the PDF can be opened in LO Writer as it
incorporate the original document).

It include the PDF dialog open on the "link" tab. It's in french, but given
the large number of options, I think you'll have no difficulty to see
what's what.​ In short: nothing checked, all on default settings.

Maybe the issue lies with your PDF reader instead? As far as I can
remember, for *me* the URL in PDF always worked... quite the opposite of
your experience :\
