This is a bug then. I can't reproduce it. It's possible that your
installation is broken. You can try conda install -f sympy and conda
install -f ipython.

This is the code that automatically enables latex in the notebook
https://github.com/sympy/sympy/blob/master/sympy/interactive/printing.py#L278.
It seems like it should work.

What operating system are you on? How are you starting the IPython notebook?

Also, what happens if you set use_latex to 'png', 'matplotlib', or 'mathjax'.

We should enable debugging here.
