Adding '\pagestyle{empty}' as ERT removes page numbers for everything but
the title page. In order to get rid of the the page number for the title
page, you need to add '\thispagestyle{empty}' as ERT somewhere on the
title page.  Adding it where you've put the name of the authors should
work.

So in your case, you probably want '\pagestyle{plain}' in general to get 
normal page numbers, but you want to insert '\thispagestyle{empty}' on the 
conver page to get rid of the page number on that page only.

PS. I think the wiki FAQ has this kind of information
