D state is noninterruptible disk so either a) it is in the middle of coring or writing a log file b) it is writing to NFS or another file system which has vanished c) your kernel has a bug.
If it doesn't vanish in a while then either forget about it or reboot. Then try rm -R /tmp/tmux-* then do $ strace -f -o strace.out tmux -vvvv and send me the strace.out file and the tmux logs.
