1. Are you using xelatex/lualatex?  
2. If yes, precompilation should have turned itself off with a warning.
3. If no, do you mind sharing this file (or a stripped down version
you're okay sharing that still has these issues) along with the LaTeX
preamble?  That would be `org-latex-preview-preamble' and
`org-latex-packages-alist'.  I would like to reproduce this bug.

Previewing 2000 snippets is exactly where the new async/speedy system is
expected to shine compared to the old one.

`org-latex-default-packages-alist' was modified to omit amsmath and
amssymb (among others) in preparation for a conditional export system
where required packages will be determined automatically from the buffer
text -- i.e. to avoid exactly the kind of headache you encountered.
Unfortunately this export system is not part of the patch set yet.

This is a recent regression.  Could you generate png previews by:

1. (setq org-latex-preview-default-process 'dvipng)
2. regenerating previews

and checking if this still happens?  If these look fine, this is a
dvisvgm issue and we will fix it soon.

Previewing unadorned LaTeX macros is officially unsupported but
partially supported in practice.  If you move the cursor over the \ch{}
and call `org-latex-preview' it should be previewed.  From that point it
should behave like a regular LaTeX fragment.  Editing it should cause
the preview to be auto-updated (If you are using
org-latex-preview-auto-mode).
