Interesting. When I try 

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec,xltxtra,xunicode}
\setromanfont[Mapping=tex-text]{LucidaBright}
\setmonofont{Lucida Sans Typewriter}
\setsansfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Lucida Sans}
\begin{document}
test \textsf{test \textbf{test}} \texttt{test}
\end{document}

on Linux (XeTeX v0.994a, Rev 292; xdvipdfmx Rev 38; fontspec 2006/06/07
v1.10), I don't have this problem. However, I get these messages from
xdvipdfmx:

Indeed pdffonts tells me

name                                 type         emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ------------ --- --- --- ---------
LucidaBright                         CID TrueType no  no  yes      5  0
LucidaSans                           CID TrueType no  no  yes      7  0
LucidaSans-Demi                      CID TrueType no  no  yes      9  0
GEHMAD+LucidaSans-Typewriter         CID TrueType yes yes yes     11  0


So it looks as if I am not supposed to use the Lucida fonts that come
with Java ...

Does XeTeX on the Mac use fontconfig? I am surprised.
