 The only way I ever found is to define a new "footnote" command and use it
on the heading instead of the normal one. See here:

https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/123762

Basically you add to the Preamble

\makeatletter

\def\myfnt{\ifx\protect\@typeset@protect
\expandafter\footnote\else\expandafter\@gobble\fi}

\makeatother


and then to insert the "footnote" on the heading you use a TeX box (Ctrl-L)
with the command


\myfnt{the heading footnote}


on it. The numbering integrates without problems with normal footnotes,
only on LyX it will look kind of weird. But you can always define a
character style ;)
