I think I have a patch for this, see below. I've tested it briefly to
see that it works with both oddeven and odd level headings, but I would
appreciate other people taking a closer look/checking that it doesn't
break other things. I think I found the problem, in that if you have a
structure like
* A
*** B
(i.e. a level one and a level 3)
after it has found the level 1 content, it expects to find a level 2
subtree, whereas in fact there could be a level 2+ tree. See the
comment in the code for the change I made.

This patch (needed by my own mistake) should correct the problem.

Curiously, it looks like \label code was removed at some time.
This quick fix should put labels back.

Try the following patch (might be wrong in detail, and its scope might
be too limited, but I hope it's not too far off: at least it seems to
work on your simple table.) It may also be white-space damaged, so some
reformatting may be needed after applying it.

Subject: [PATCH] Process latex placement attribute for tables.
Figures got placement attributes previously, but tables never did.
* lisp/org-exp.el (org-export-format-source-code-or-example): escape
underscores in code block names on latex listings export
* lisp/org-latex.el (org-export-latex-listings-w-names): make export
of code block names to latex optional
This is the third patch in a series that makes some straightforward
corrections to a number of docstrings. Each change is normally to:
- correct a typo, or
- fix up hyperlinks to function or variable names, or
- ensure slightly better conformance with the documentation guidelines
and tips given in the Elisp manual
No attempt is made to provide missing docstrings or document arguments.
Cheers,
Phil
* lisp/org-latex.el (org-export-latex-preprocess): Make a special case for \nbsp.
(org-latex-entities): Remove the entry for \nbsp.
(org-latex-entities-exceptions): Variable removed.
Of course, an updated patch is attached.

Subject: [PATCH] add short-names to #+captions with support for latex export
captions specified with the following syntax
#+CAPTION: [shortname]{longname}
will have their short and longnames handled appropriately.
Thanks to Robert Cunningham for suggesting this feature.
* lisp/org-exp.el (org-export-attach-captions-and-attributes): adding
a shortname attribute to caption strings under the symbol name
org-caption-shortn.
* lisp/org-latex.el (org-export-latex-tables): handling caption short
names on table export
(org-export-latex-convert-table.el-table): handling caption short
names on table.el type table export
(org-export-latex-links): handling caption short names on link/image
export
(org-export-latex-format-image): now takes an optional argument
specifying a caption short name
* lisp/org-latex.el (org-export-latex-fixed-width): now checking
org-example rather than org-protected on verbatim export, because by
default all ": " prefixed lines are marked protected
* lisp/org-latex.el: items are no longer skipped when their first line
ends on a protected element.
* lisp/org-list.el: protected environments looking like lists are not
exported anymore.
Thanks to Nicolas Goaziou <n.goaziou@gmail.com> for this patch.
Environments coming from latex backend specific instructions (#+LaTeX)
are already protected and won't be treated as normal environments.
* lisp/org-latex.el (org-export-latex-preprocess): Environments coming
from latex backend specific instructions (#+LaTeX) are already
protected and won't be treated as normal environments.
* lisp/org-latex.el (org-export-latex-fontify): Avoid fontifying
several stars in a row.
* lisp/org.el (org-emphasis-alist): Mention
`org-export-docbook-emphasis-alist' in the docstring.

This bug was introduced in commit
1b40601ebd
which sets the body-only option to true when called with a simple
prefix argument, however it does not check that the prefix argument
is non-null.
Thanks to Valentin Wüstholz for reporting this bug
This new code will search #+INDEX lines in the buffer. For LaTeX, it
will simple convert these into LaTeX \index{} commands. For other
backends, it will copy thee entries to a new file, with extension
orgx. These files can then later be post-processed to create the index.

This support was totally broken. It works now again. Unfortunately
it is not possible to edit the table directly in the org-mode buffer
anymore - to edit such a table, you have to use C-c '

The coding system of the LaTeX class will now only be set to the value
corresponding to the buffer's file coding system if the class
specifies \usepackage[AUTO]{inputenc}. Any other value for the coding
system will not be modified.

The regular expression was not optimal, and if there was a horizontal
rule, search would not start from the beginning of the buffer but from
after the rule!

Indeed, a space before the caret was not allowed in LaTeX export

Indeed, and this commit pops `org-table-last-alignment' if the first
column has been removed by `org-table-clean-before-export'. The same
problem must have caused a one-off error when setting the alignment in
LaTeX tables, bu it seems nobody has noticed this so far. Anyway,
also this is fixed now.
A `save-excursion' around a call to org-table-align make point end up
*before* the table. The reason is that a table align replaces the
entire table, including the newline before it. When the table is
removed in order to be replaced, the marker created by
`save-excursion' slips. `org-table-align' has it's own, built-in
`save-excursion' by remembering the line and column where the cursor
was before the align.
