It is not buffer-file-coding-system but default-input-method that
determine the input method when you hit C-\.  Try

  F1 v default-input-method RET

in the problematic buffer.

If the buffer contains only "European" characters, utf-8 would be the
best choice since other application programs can read the generated
file.  emacs-mule is specific to Emacs and other applications do not
understand it.
