There's nothing inherent in the content causing this. I opened your mwe.lyx file in LyX and, after confirming the error, deleted the second ERT box and trailing comma, confirmed what was left compiled without error, then typed the ERT box and content (and trailing comma) back in. The document compiled without problem.
Paul, Thanks for confirming.
So the question is, how did you create the second part of the example file? Most likely something you did inadvertently inserted the problem character.
In the actual document I had originally entered the inline equation using Insert -> Math -> Inline. This morning I deleted that yellow box and used ERT to enter the string. Error committed. Now, in the actual document I had to re-enter the ERT several times to get it to compile. It may be that when entering the ERT content I tended to type ], backspace to delete, then type \. Perhaps correcting the typo was the cause. I'll see with the display version if it's my fingers mis-typing a backslash that creates the unprintable character.
