For a starter: Are you sure the screen fonts you set in the
Preferences really support KOI8-U (i.e. have all the requried glyphs)?

Also: What kind of input method you're using -- LyX native (kmaps), or
XKB?

PS: There's a good chapter on i18n in the LyX user guide, it should
probably give you some pointers.

PPS: IMHO, KOI8-R/U are not really suitable for LyX -- you won't see
some of the important chars on screen (such as the qoutes, e.g.),
although they will appear in DVI. Better switch to (shudder) cp1251,
at least for LyX.
