Call the etbb-fonts the LyX-way as non-TeX-fonts (Document - Settings -
Fonts - choose etbb* in the list of serif fonts)? That way you can
compile with XeTeX and utf.

* If etbb are not in the list, you have to make e. g.
/usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/etbb
known to your OS as a font directory.

Hope it helps
