This is typical :-)
Don't misunderstand me, I do love LyX, but sometimes it's not that nice...
Since you want to use a chapter*, I guess it is some kind of introduction,
isn't it? If that's the case, the LaTeX way to deal with it makes you
input some LaTeX commands into your LyX file, by means of ERT.
Try putting
\frontmatter
b4 your intro-chapter, change that environment from chapter* into chapter,
then put
\mainmatter
just b4 your "real" first chapter.
Then look at the dvi, and enjoy!

Anyway, the LaTeX command to change a pagestyle is
\pagestyle{headings}
for example; but this won't solve your problem at all.
Try that \{front,main}matter stuff!
