George,
That looks like tmux picking up a bell (0x07) character, and is an indication
that the program on that window tried to alert the user for some reason. In one
terminal emulator I have to use, there is an audible tone (typically the system
alert tone on Windows) when the shell issues a bell character.
How to turn it off in tmux I don't know, but you may be able to configure vim to
not issue a bell character in the first place when you press Escape more than
once, and that will avoid tmux picking it up.

I have a small annoyance that I cannot seem to deal with. I often have vim open
in a window and will sometimes press escape a couple of times (just habit) and
then quickly switch windows. What happens is that the tmux panel will highlight
the vim window even though nothing happened besides a benign escape key press
being resolved. I included a screenshot of what it looks like. The window "vim"
gets highlighted in black.
I don't really know what feature of tmux this is (so I have a hard time
searching for it online) or if this is something I have to set in vim. I tried
set -g visual-bell off
but it does not seem to work. Any help would be appreciated.
