What route are you taking to generate the pdf? Are you going
* lyx->latex-(latex)->dvi-(dvips)->ps-(ps2pdf)->pdf
which requires that the png image is converted to eps format, or are
you using the route
* lyx->latex-(pdflatex)->pdf
which can use the png file as-is?

If you are converting the image to eps format, what are you using to 
perform the conversion? I expect that you are using the default set 
of converters? Specifically, that you use ImageMagick's 'convert' 
program to transform png->eps.

Does this work from the command line
$ convert your_file.png EPS:your_file.eps
