How to get Ctrl+Left/Right arrow to do word jumps in Byobu?

Hello,

I have configured both Zsh and Bash to do backward-word and forward-word word jumps with Ctrl+Left/Right. However, this does not work in byobu (using tmux). I found a 10 years old bug report about it, but none of the tricks worked. Does anyone have a config for this?
