I have never used bibunits or chapterbib, but I can confirm that
biblatex can do chapter bibliographies quite easily. It  lets you
choose the sorting scheme (including the unsorted option). Even though
biblatex is not completely integrated into Lyx, using it from lyx is
quite easy. All you need is to load the BOTH the biblatex package and
the bib files from the preamble. Using a standard bibliography in a
lyx note allows you to choose references "the Lyx way." See the  wiki
page on biblatex for the details: http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex

Cheers,

Stefano

Note: the wiki page has a warning about biber as not yet mature
product. While biber is certainly not as mature as bibtex, I have
found it extremely stable. On the plus side, biber allows you to use
UTF-8 encoded bibliography files---a great bonus if you work with
languages containing diacritics (i.e. accents).  I have switched to
biber about three years ago and never regretted it.
