One sure way to fix this is to use the built-in tmux scroll back function 
rather than the xterm-dependent mouse wheel. To enter tmux's scollback buffer 
press prefix shift-pgup (where prefix is your tmux prefix, by default ctrl-b).

Additionally, I use tmux in a similar environment (OS X with Terminal) and the 
only time I see a problem like you describe is using the trackpad to scroll 
back in a window with multiple panes. Single pane windows scroll correctly. Are 
you seeing this issue on a multi-pane window?
