I can reproduce it too, without tikz. I have a green-on-black setup but
I think the underlying reason (at least in my case: Andreas's case might
be different) is minted. I'm appending an org file with my
investigation.

* previewing a latex fragment produces a black blob
I use a green-on-black scheme:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq frame-inherited-parameters '(foreground-color background-color))
(set-foreground-color "green")
(set-background-color "black")
(set-cursor-color "red")
(set-mouse-color "red")
(set-face-foreground 'menu "light grey")
(set-face-background 'menu "black")
#+END_SRC
Here's a simple latex fragment:
\[
2 + 2 = 4
\]
Previewing it with C-c C-x C-l, I get an invisible black blob.
The current value of org-format-latex-options is
(:foreground default
:background default
:scale 1.4
:html-foreground "Black"
:html-background "Transparent"
:html-scale 1.0
:matchers
("begin" "$1" "$" "$$" "\\(" "\\["))
If I link to the produced png file:
[[file:./ltxpng/dark-bg_ca60306327ae6b995f92a473e1e8787c7917c488.png]]
and follow the link, I get nothing. The file has size 84 which seems
ridiculously low. Indeed, I can ``display'' it and get info on the
image: the channel statistics show it's all black.
OTOH, if I take the following tex program, latex and dvipng it with
the same parameters, I get a reasonable result:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\[
2 + 2 = 4
\]
\end{document}
%%% Local Variables:
%%% mode: latex
%%% TeX-master: "fragment"
%%% End:
#+END_EXAMPLE
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
latex fragment.tex
dvipng -fg "rgb 0 1 0" -bg "rgb 0 0 0" -D 140 -T tight -o fragment.png
fragment.dvi
#+END_SRC
So either the production of the fragment is wrong or the production of
the png from the fragment, probably the former. The latex code for the
fragment follows. If I again do the latex/dvipng run by hand (with
--shell-escape to accommodate minted) I get an all-black png. If I
comment out minted, it works.
