So I guess it might be due to the fact that tmux starts a login shell, so all 
the profile files are sourced, where as the gnome terminal starts with an 
interactive session? Possibly mixing up the terms a bit there.

Adding the following to the tmux rc file fixes it:

```
# ~/.tmux.conf 

# Don't run a login shell!
set -g default-command "${SHELL}"
```

cheers,
Adam
