Yes, tmux won't know at all about brltty's selection, so it cannot
transmit the information to the other client.

Another way to perform copy/paste would be to use tmux' support, which
show up on all connect clients. But that won't teach your brother the
brltty way.

Ideally brltty would be able to tell tmux where the selection is, that'd
have to be discussed with tmux people. Possibly brltty could run a tmux
command to tell it the selection, and tmux could be made to highlight
the selection.
