Did you notice my instructions had you run latex twice -- once before and once after running makeindex? I'll bet you dollars to donuts whatever script the LyX environment calls doesn't do that double latex run. In fact, I ALWAYS generate PDFs via my own scripts, at least if I care about accuracy in the index. What might be interesting is to generate PDFs via a make file.
