I really hate to resurrect an old thread, but this is the EXACT same problem that I am still having. There are 24 (yes, TWENTY-FOUR!) achievements that pop every time that I load Old World. (My husband has the same issue but with a different number of achievements)

While they all show on the Overview page in GOG Galaxy as being earned, if I go to the details page of achievements, there is no little trophy with a date and it doesn't appear to actually be listed as being earned. See attached images - the What's the Worst That Happens achievement shows as being earned, but in the full list it is not.

Also, oddly - if I open the game, 24 achievements pop. If I close it then open again, only 18 pop. Repeating this gets 12 and then 6... and then the next time I open it goes back to 24.

And one more odd thing: SOMETIMES the first achievement to pop doesn't show a name, it just shows "galaxy_notifications__achievement_unlocke..." though that may be completely unrelated.

Apologies for the ongoing issue.

We have done all we can as developers to fix this, but the problem requires support from GOG to resolve and it seems this is not a priority for them.

I can only recommend disabling the GOG overlay whilst in game, which will prevent the achievements popping up in game, though they will still appear in Galaxy. To do this, right click Old World in your library and select Manage Installation, Configure, Features then untick the box for 'Overlay - Access GOG Galaxy features in-game.
