Well I'm in Australia is that close enough? :-)
If you want to use math symbols as items in a list of any sort you must
put then in math mode. So your examples should add "\(" and "\)" to the
math character like:
'\(\Diamond\)'
If you checkout the output of LyX when you use a custom itemize bullet
shape you'll see the same thing there. While you can use '$' symbols
instead they're usually frowned upon for use in LaTeX since they are (as I
understand it anyway) TeX symbols.

with the above fix. You don't need do everything in ERT just the actual
\(\Diamond\) part.
