Hm, it doesn't seem to make any difference for me either, but fortunately, the 
Ctrl key is behaving for me as it ought vis-á-vis Emacs keybinding.

Have you checked to make sure the keybindings are set properly in LyX -> 
Preferences -> Editor?  Relevant Ctrl key combos like "Ctrl-F" and "Ctrl-X S" 
are set in my preferences with ^F, "^X S", etc.

For a time I used a macros (called with a global hotkey) that would toggle the 
Capslock key between Ctrl and Cmd that I would invoke going into and coming out 
of LyX. That was of course less than ideal but it was fast and worked pretty 
well. Hasn't been necessary for a quite a long time, though.
