This doesn't provide enough information to dare a diagnosis. What are
your specific ispell settings in you .emacs (or in a system wide
configuration file)?  What are your language settings?  Do you use
Latin-1/UTF-8 or Latin-9 (if that is possible with LaTeX) or some TeX
encoding for umlauts?

If you can not find your ispell settings, at least please post the
return value of this: 
(assoc ispell-dictionary ispell-dictionary-alist)

And while we are at it, please put the cursor at one of those umlauts
and hit `C-u C-x ='.
