The problem is that Lyx is configured to use the texlive-union that was
provided during the build.  It should prefer an optional TeX Live
installation that the user provides.  Perhaps we can make it
(optionally?) look up the TeX Live tools on PATH before falling back to
its texlive-union.

Investigating this might be a good starting point.
