Did you reload Org? I cannot reproduce the problem anymore.

I mean that choosing between an opening quote, a closing quote, or
nothing is done with a regexp. It cannot cover all cases, and some
tricky situations will fool smart quote mechanism.

If that happens, and if `org-export-smart-quotes-regexps' cannot be
improved to handle the situation consistently, you will have to specify
LaTeX quote code manually (e.g. with an export snippet, or an entity).

I cannot see the link with reproducible research, though.
