Also check the values of the Emacs variables: `sh-shell-file' and `shell-file-name' (they should be "bash" NOT "sh"). Add set -x as the 1st line of your /etc/profile and check if it is called or any later command changes the PATH. Just to give you hope, I can tell you that it works fine for me and other users.
