Forcing konsole to set TERM=xterm-256color works well
What's the value of TERM before you launch tmux? My guess is that it is "xterm"

set the iTerm preferences as described below, but I had not quit
iTerm2 and restarted it, so my TERM environment variable was still set
to "xterm". Restarting it corrected the problem.

If you have to specify "tmux -2" then something is wrong with your environment.
That says your terminal supports 256 colors but isn't declaring it correctly.
