I have used this in the past:
This in the preamble:
\newcommand{\bmath}[1]{\boldsymbol{#1}}
\let\newcommand=\providecommand
and this in the main body:
\begin_inset FormulaMacro
\newcommand{\bmath}[1]{{#1}}
\end_inset
\begin_inset FormulaMacro
\newcommand{\Matrix}[1]{\bmath{#1}}
\end_inset
I now need nothng in the preamble because this works perfectly:
\begin_inset FormulaMacro
\newcommand{\Matrix}[1]{\boldsymbol{#1}}
{\mathbf{#1}}
\end_inset
Hope this helps...
