This works for me:

%%% Local Variables:
%%% LaTeX-equation-label: (concat
%%%                        (file-name-nondirectory
%%%                         (file-name-sans-extension
%%%                          (buffer-file-name)))
%%%                        ":" LaTeX-equation-label))
%%% LaTeX-label-function: nil
%%% End:

The `LaTeX-label-function' is explicitly set to nil, because if you are
using reftex, it's set to `reftex-label' which doesn't use
`LaTeX-equation-label' to construct a label name.
