That sounds like Emacs can't find proper fonts for them.  The answer
how to fix this will very much depend on the system you use, so it
might be helpful to report such a problem with M-x
TeX-submit-bug-report RET.  Generally, the developer version of Emacs
tends to be better at figuring out encoding-relating workarounds when
interacting with the environment (and it has some other advantages),
but there is no guarantee that it would fare better in this situation.

It might help if you install more fonts on your system (Linux?),
depending on what encoding you usually edit texts in.  It might also
help or help not to select a different default font (try
Shift-mouse1 for some choices).

Sounds like a case for M-x preview-report-bug RET.  Even if it turns
out that this is not a bug for some reason, the accompanying bug
reporting info makes diagnosing this much easier.  It behaves
differently from "remove preview from buffer" then?
