Here is most likely your problem: terminal (emulators) usually don't handle modifier keys well (some or all of them). You'll have to use ESC as a prefix instead or dig into the documentation if you can set it up to translate keys in different ways. If a GUI Emacs has the same problem, then most of the time the window manager consumes the meta key events before Emacs gets to see them. This is another common problem, you can usually designate applications that should receive all key events (but then the window manager doesn't get to see them) or move the WM hotkeys to some other combination that isn't used (good luck finding one that Emacs hasn't already used :-).
