OK, I see the problem. Two solutions:
1. The simplest is to add an empty ERT box to the first item. This will
prevent LyX from collapsing the empty element and adds nothing to
the output.
2. Local Layout:
Format 66
Style Enumerate
KeepEmpty 1
End
The "KeepEmpty" layout tag instructs LyX not to delete empty lines.
