Interesting. I can confirm that I do get correct indentation behaviour in
that case.

I guess that means that there is something else in my .emacs that is not
playing nicely with AUCTeX, my first guess would be some special handling
of braces needed for some other mode, but there is no "{" or "}" in the
file.

Are there any known other modes that can mess up AUCTeX?
