Using UTF8=0 did not fix the issue.
Couple more tidbits I've picked up on this:
1) The "network" status notification also exhibits the same behavior (Bug title
updated slightly)
2) The issues are isolated to the tmux backend. Switching the backend to screen
also causes the issues not to occur

Ugh, that's nasty.
Can you try disabling UTF8? Add UTF8=0 in ~/.byobu/statusrc, and let
me know if that fixes it? If so, then that will help me get a better
permanent fix.
