I don't know the solution to your problem. You might hit a general drawback of 
nomencl or makeindex, which should be replaced by the much better glossaries 
package (which supports xindy) eventually within LyX.

As to your problem. i suppose you know that you can work around the sorting 
glitches by means of the sort key..
