Can you send me the original file and the converted one? Privately? I should be able to find the problem. The code looks right as is. Something is fishy.

It's pretty easy to install several versions of LyX on the same computer. I'd see if I could convert it using a LyX older than 2.4.0 Beta2, and if I can, then I'd try to convert the converted file to 2.4.0 Beta2. Obviously I'd back up the original file and back up at each successful stage.
