Check your figure properties before and after you draw the 3D plot

get(gcf, 'renderer')

My guess is that plotting the 3D function changes the renderer from the default ("painters") to another (likely OpenGL). Matlab's Latex rendering does not seem to play well with zbuffer or OpenGL (these produce bitmaps rather than line art).

You may be stuck if painters can't render your 3D graphics properly, but you can try to force it by setting the renderer manually back to painters

set(gcf, 'renderer', 'painters')
