There are a number of places you can create a new window in tmux and the difficulty is that several of these don't have an obvious parent or have a choice of parents.
We have typically chosen - with a few exceptions - to try and make tmux create all windows with the same environment no matter how they are started. This means things are mostly consistent. We might change this but it'll need some thought. The problem for you is that tmux is starting all your shells with the same termios and you are promptly changing it in some shell startup file. But when you run a command directly your shell, which I guess is probably bash, decides it is noninteractive and doesn't run your startup files. You will have the same problem if you do, for example, xterm -e "vim". The easiest solution is to run "stty -ixon; vim" or you could look at BASH_ENV which is apparently also evaluated for noninteractive shells. You'll need to make sure BASH_ENV ends up in the tmux global environment (either it's in your environment at server start or you set it explicitly with tmux setenv -g).
