The way I start screen:
~~~~ x-shell (my own custom script)
#!/bin/bash
set -e -u -o pipefail || exit 1
test "${#}" -eq 0
export SHELL='/bin/bash'
export XCONSOLE_TITLE='shell'
exec x-console screen -RR
exit 1
~~~~
What is behind x-console:
~~~~ x-console
#!/bin/bash
set -e -u -o pipefail || exit 1
test "${#}" -ge 1
title='x-console'
test -z "${XCONSOLE_TITLE:-}" || title="${XCONSOLE_TITLE}"
exec urxvt -title "${title}" -e "$...@}"
exit 1
~~~~
So actually it boils down to:
~~~~
urxvt -title shell -e screen -RR

My versions are (on Archlinux):
* screen: 4.0.3-8
* rxvt-unicode: 9.07-1
BTW: I think this is a problem rooting from RXVT, because even
alsa-mixer started as `urxvt -e alsamixer` sometimes miss-behaves.
(When I have some time available I'll also try the version from
Git. But the current problem is not that pressing to me.)
