Yes. LyX automatically closes empty paragraphs if not told otherwise by the
KeepEmpty keyword in the layout file.
A fast workaround is to fool LyX by putting something invisible into the
APPENDICES paragraph, e.g. "{}" or "% some comment" as ERT.
The Right Thing is to copy IEEEtran.layout to your local lyx directory
(usually ~/.lyx/layouts) and apply the following patch:
--- /usr/share/lyx/layouts/IEEEtran.layout 2004-07-25 07:39:20.000000000

+++ /home/milde/.lyx/layouts/IEEEtran.layout 2005-04-20 10:34:59.000000000
