This is IMHO rather unintuitive behavior, but if you put the cursor in a 
math inset and then go to View -> Toolbars and click a math toolbar, it 
toggles between auto and always off.  If you do this _outside_ a math 
inset, it toggles between auto and always on.  The menu entry does not 
change (other than presence/absence of the check mark) -- it always says 
'auto'.  I miss the old behavior.
