Most template files have \use_amsmath 0 (off). This misfeature seems
to come from lyx2lyx/lyx_0_12.py (but there might be other places).
Jose, why is use_amsmath set to this unusual value?

All template should have use_amsmath set to 'auto' ("\use_amsmath 1"
in the file)), unless there is a reason to do otherwise.
