Thomas,

Thanks for your pointers.  The issue did indeed lie in my tmux
configuration, but it is confusing why it did not manifest itself
before.

When I created a completely new user account with no settings
whatsoever, tmux did not exhibit the issue I have been describing.  On
a whim, I blew away my tmux configuration and tried again (important
to note: if you have active tmux sessions, you must use a different
socket (-L option) to test a new configuration, or close your open
sessions).  When I eliminated my tmux configuration, the problem was
gone.

The only thing that looked incriminating was this line:
set -g escape-time 0

I set this to 0 because hitting escape would cause delays in e.g. vim
when escape was pressed.  See here:
http://superuser.com/questions/252214/slight-delay-when-switching-modes-in-vim-using-tmux-or-screen.
 As a compromise, I set the value to 100 instead of 0.  Problem
solved!

As I mentioned, I have never noticed this issue before.  The setting
has existed in my tmux configuration for several years, so I can only
conclude something must have changed recently in tmux.

Thanks for your help!
