Could the behavior I observe be a result of using a KOMA book? I use the latest 
v of LyX on Windows.

I never noticed this behavior and just tested it (attached: plain article, with 
sections and subsections, and standard theorem module):  The structure remains 
intact. However, within the deactivated Branch the numbering may change 
(starting with 1, for instance). If you activate the branch again the correct 
numbering is restored.

This also does not happen for me.  I use "dissolve inset" often and tested it 
today again with a branch that contains a section and a subsection.  Both the 
section and the subsection headings remained section and subsection headings.

I tested with LyX 2.4.4 on macOS
