I wasn't even aware there was a cover for the dome. My adapter fits directly onto the domed lug. Am I missing something??

Mine's the same, so we might both be missing something!

This is the locking nut and locking adaptor you should have?

I can only agree with everyone else. My locking nut is domed shaped and has no cover. Locking nut socket worked fine when I took my wheels off.

When you position the adapter over the locking wheel nut, rotate and wiggle it a bit until it slots into place. Have you tried this?
