Maxima removes parentheses from cos(x)

Hello,

when exporting to TeX, cos(x)*y is printed as \cos x\,y and my students
could read this at cos(x*y).

Is here any variable which changes this behavior, or any possibility how
to keep the parentheses around x? I mean that tex(cos(x)*y) should give
\cos (x)\,y instead of \cos x\,y

I solve this problem when working on a simple system which solves ODE's
and shows intermediate steps, the outputs look like
http://old.mendelu.cz/~marik/maw/ode_offline/ and the form to submit an
equation is http://old.mendelu.cz/~marik/maw/#ode (covers linear and
separeted equations)

Any suggestion is welcomed.
Many thanks.

Robert
