I've been hitting this for months (since 24?) and finally searched around
and found this thread. I'm also running remote, using nx-client. I went to
customize select-active-regions and found the value "ony shift-selection or
mouse-drag" does the trick since it still allows automatic setting of active
region but doesn't trigger on things like mark-whole-buffer, which was
killing me.
The elisp version it put in my init.el was (select-active-regions (quote
only)).
