2.4.0-beta-2 possible regression: Float inset stops instant preview

As requested, I've compiled the user guide with 2.4.0-beta2 on Fedora 
37. The compile succeeds and the resulting PDF looks perfect, at least 
on a quick scan-through.  However, I noticed that instant preview is not 
working for the UserGuide.lyx file, similarly to my originally posted 
bug, and that some errors appeared on the terminal (see below).


I also successfully compiled the Math guide.  There were just a few 
normal-looking messages on the terminal and instant preview does work 
for this file.


Here's the terminal output for UserGuide.lyx:
