Hmm, a bit more complicated than I thought. I really want the cross
reference to the slide number, which is indicated in the footer.
When I put \section, I get an un-numbered slide so page numbers and
slide numbers are not the same.
Weirdly, I put in 3 labels and 3 cross references to them. They all
look the same format (even in the LaTeX code). For some reason I
can't see, 2 of them did give me a cross reference corresponding to
the slide number, as I want, but the 3rd gave me what seems to be the
page number (which is 4 greater than the slide number) because I have
4 \sections before this.

When you say "beamer document", do you mean a Beamer slide show or a
Beamer article class document?
For a slide show, you can put the cursor in either the title or
body of
the frame to be referenced and use Insert > Label... to insert a
label.
Then, where the page number should appear, use Insert >
Cross-Reference..., pick the label of the target frame, and set the
"Reference Format:" box to one of the three options that contains
"<page>".

It might help if you provided an MWE (just enough to show an incorrect
slide number.
