I know this is an old post, but the problem, in my view, still exists.

AUTeX provides for customization for LaTeX-mode-hook, but inside the
function LaTeX-preview-setup in preview.el, it overwrites the value with
(remove-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook #'LaTeX-preview-setup) (add-hook
'LaTeX-mode-hook #'preview-mode-setup).
