It's a nice theory, but I seem to remember ^B being Tmux's escape key because it was developed within a Screen session.

Either way, ^A is supposed to be "go to the start of the line" and it drove me absolutely nuts when I was using screen and had to ^A^A. There was probably a way to remap that, but I was introduced to tmux via byobu and now just use straight tmux on everything (works great on OSX too!)
