Thanks Paul,
it works fine because amsbsy is loaded everytime automatically.
And sorry for the wrong key-binding M-z-f.
It is M-c-f in an English LyX.
But I'm also interested in converting greek letters in roman-style (M-c-r).
Is there also a possibility with aspecial AMS-LaTeX package?

You are right, that seems to be a bug in the font-package. Greek letters are
always displayed in roman-style.
