http://www.pctex.com/kb/58.html
The bottom line is that my font packages conflict with amsymb and
amsfonts and I need to turn the latter off. How can do this?
I added the necessary preamble lines to load my font packages in
Documents>Settings>Preamble but going through the pdflatex log I see
that lyx is calling amssymb and I cannot access the lyx default for
that in any menu that I could find.
Thanks!

You can suppress loading of the AMS packages in Document -> Settings...
-> Math Options (deselect both the first two choices). Then add
\usepackage{amsmath} in the preamble.

Ivan asked me to post the follow-up to this. (We continued the
discussion offline.)
Turns out I was wrong. If you turn off AMS loading but then use an AMS
symbol in a formula somewhere (such as \mathbb{R}), LyX spots this and
automatically loads the amssymb and amsfonts packages, which are
incompatible with lucimatx. The best solution would probably be a
couple more check boxes to allow the user to suppress automatic loading
of those packages as well.
