Hi,
I can confirm that this happens on CentOS as well.

This happens periodically. Sometimes, I ctrl-c when logging in and it will automatically end up back at bash instead of byobu. This gives me some insight. Normally, I just restart my host but this is getting annoying.

If I try to go back into byobu now, it appears to lock up as normal. I can try killing all byobu sessions.

cody@hosting:[~]$ byobu --version
byobu version 5.86
WARNING: ulimit -u is too low
Screen version 4.00.03 (FAU) 23-Oct-06

I thought maybe it was because of the ulimit being too low (default 1024), I changed it to 10240, then tried to reopen byobu.

cody@hosting:[~]$ ulimit -u 10240 ;byobu --version
byobu version 5.86
Screen version 4.00.03 (FAU) 23-Oct-06
cody@hosting:[~]$ byobu --version
byobu version 5.86
Screen version 4.00.03 (FAU) 23-Oct-06
cody@hosting:[~]$ byobu
Attaching: [screen____1933.byobu]

I hit ctrl-z and it allowed me to background byobu.

Decided to kill all byobu via root and then went back to my account. Works fine now.

Seems as though screen is locking up.
I'm not super smart on understanding what I'm doing, but this is what I know I can try providing.
