Thanks in advance.
This is a known problem. tex2lyx does not support listings (http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/5194) or the standard verbatim environment (http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/5408) at all. Fixing this is possible, but not easy, since the usual TeX parsing cannot be used for listings and verbatim code. It needs to be modified depending on the given listings settings, i.e. the escape character. Therefore I would not expect that this bug gets fixed soon. Georg
