This works fine here: 

GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.22.0)
Org-mode version 7.5 (baseline.263.gcf708)

Carsten pushed a fix back in November of last year. If your org-mode is older,
it's time to upgrade.

NB: it's probably a better practice to use the \(...\) inline math delimiters instead
of $...$
