Hm, the docs are a bit outdated.  C-M-a is bound to `beginning-of-defun'
which in turn calls `beginning-of-defun-function' which AUCTeX sets to
`LaTeX-find-matching-begin'.

What does C-h v beginning-of-defun-function RET in your LaTeX buffer
say?

That should be pretty much the same.  C-M-e is `end-of-defun' which
calls `end-of-defun-function' which AUCTeX sets to
`LaTeX-find-matching-end'.

It's always good to provide some minimal sample snippet and a
reproduction recipe.  Right now, I can only say "works for me with the
latex file I've used for testing".
