I was about to report the same issue here Rob, until I ran byobu --version on the different machines. Turns out the machine I was ssh'd into has:
byobu version 5.87
tmux 1.9
Ubuntu 16.04 has
byobu version 5.106
tmux 2.1
So it looks like the other (Raspbian) machine has the issue. Simple test is, does it work *before* you ssh into Debian? In my case the answer is, yes. So this bug is not an Ubuntu one.
