indexes in texindy and utf8

[Ingar Pareliussen]

Hi
I make multiple indexes with the texindy, to get correct Norwegian sorting  I 
use utf8 in lyx and run the texindy with the commands: 
-L norwegian -C utf8  -M lang/norwegian/utf8.xdy
from lyx.

But this does not work. In the .tex file exported from lyx i get:
\sindex[nor]{Åkerkål}

and then somthing goes wrong for 
in the idx file you find a encoding translation:
\indexentry{\r Akerk\r al|hyperpage}{12}

and in the .idx file it is put under A instead of Å

  \lettergroup{A}
  \item \r Akerk\r al, \hyperpage{12}

Does anyone encountered this problem  and found a soulution?
