This is a problem with Xresources if it happens undr Xorg, and/or with
input library keybindings, that is with the .inputrc file.

Under X I can replicate your problem when I comment this line in
~/.Xresources:

*metaSendsEscape: true

Try uncommenting or adding this line, then run:

xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources

open a new terminal and see if the problem went away.
