This actually works.  In fact, this is how I used to control table landscape mode before changing to #+begin_landscape/#+end_landscape.

Sorry, I should have been more clear that I use the \usepackage{pdflscape} package that actually rotates the orientation of the page to be more easily readable in a pdf viewer.

Not sure on the exact question; in the mean time, could you use?

#+latex: \begin{landscape}

#+latex: \end{landscape}
