Hmm, that's interesting. I assume you are using xterm then? Have you
rebound any buttons via stty or xterm overrides?
For example I have the following xterm overrides in my .Xdefaults and
then customize each of my applications accordingly:
XTerm*VT100.translations: #override \n\
Ctrl<Key>BackSpace: string(0x08) \n\
Alt<Key>BackSpace: string("") \n\
<Key>BackSpace: string(0x7f) \n\
...
Maybe you could also customize your translations so that the keys
generate the sequences you want?
Also, what happens if you run "cat", press ^V Backspace, and then press
^V Delete. What codes were generated outside tmux and what inside tmux?

^b is the default prefix. All default tmux keybindings start with
pressing ^b first. You can change this to another button via the prefix
setting to something like ^a which is screen's default.
