How do you insert the square root ?
If you use the math panel, then the window of the math panel gets the focus
when you press on it, so to return to the LyX screen you need to press
alt+tab (or another key combination, depending on your window manager).
Do you also have a problem when you inserting the root with the keyboard ?
There are two ways to do it:
1. M-m s
2. Typing \sqrt and pressing space
