I have no idea if this makes a difference, but just in case it triggers
a thought: my desktop (where the issue never manifests) has Qt 4.8.7 and
5.5.1 installed; my laptop (where the problem manifests if I do not
override the native dialog setting) has Qt 4.8.7 and 5.9.5. LyX uses
4.8.7 on both machines (or so it claims), so I would not think the Qt 5
version would make a difference ... but lacking a rational explanation
for the difference in behaviors, who knows?
Also, is there any place where a Qt configuration file would be stored
that would explain why the native true/false thing has no impact on my
desktop but a big impact on my laptop? (All I know about Qt is the
spelling.)
What may be relevant is your desktop environment. In gnome, it will be
the gnome file dialog, in KDE the KDE file dialog, and may be others.
