Please file a bug report if the file is not secret (or if you can easily
create a non-secret one).

Yes. You have two options:
1) Add the line
\sindex[]{translate} %splitidx.sty
to the file lib/syntax.default in your LyX installation, and import the file
again. This should produce correct ERT.
2) Get the current BRANCH_2_0_X from svn or wait for 2.0.4. This will create
real index insets for \sindex.
