So if I read this discussion correctly, the problem is, quoting SE:
The problem is likely that your other files use tex-plain-mode
instead of latex-mode. The .tex extension is used for both, so
Emacs tries to guess, and it tends to err on the side of
tex-plain-mode.
You can add a -*- mode: latex -*- somewhere on the first line of
your files to avoid the problem.
Is this something we would like to change, or is this working as
expected and therefore notabug?
