I have no idea if this makes a difference, but just in case it

Qt 4.8.7 and 5.5.1 installed; my laptop (where the problem manifests
if I do not override the native dialog setting) has Qt 4.8.7 and
5.9.5. LyX uses 4.8.7 on both machines (or so it claims), so I would
not think the Qt 5 version would make a difference ... but lacking a
rational explanation for the difference in behaviors, who knows?
Also, is there any place where a Qt configuration file would be
stored that would explain why the native true/false thing has no
impact on my desktop but a big impact on my laptop? (All I know about
Qt is the spelling.)
What may be relevant is your desktop environment. In gnome, it will be
the gnome file dialog, in KDE the KDE file dialog, and may be others.

I agree that the environment matters in general, but in this case three
different systems running Mint + MATE (which I believe is a Gnome
derivative) produced two different dialogs, one of which is apparently
the "native" dialog (based on the new configuration setting) and one of
which is not.
