Quick question regarding copy/paste and cut/paste

In this newest version of lyx, it seems that the default keys for paste is changed.

If I have $acb$ together, and want to change the order of them, I can no longer select b inside the math environment and do ctrl+x then move my cursor to the middle of a and c and then press ctrl+v. What happens is when I press ctrl+v, b gets pasted outside the math environment, in plain text, in front of $ac$.

Changing the shortcut of selection-paste to ctrl+v mentioned here does not fix this problem.
Changing the shortcut of clipboard-paste to ctrl+v does not fix this problem either.

It seems to me that the better place to address this would be the LyX Mailing list or the LyX Bug Tracker.

Solved it myself.
