Thank you for this report.

What version of Mosh is running on the server?

What architecture is the server (is it also a Debian amd64 machine)?

Could you please also test running Mosh 1.2.5 on the client *and* server,
and seeing if you can replicate the bug? That will help us determine if
this is a regression.

Depending on the results, the next request will be for you to use "script"
to capture the output (1) entering tmux, (2) leaving tmux and entering
mosh, and then (3) leaving mosh.

Thanks very much for finding this,
Keith
