So how are you starting your screen session?

Is this a Linux question or an OSX question?  I'm at a loss why you 
included all this Mac stuff.

Anyway, the vi interface setting doesn't seem to be inherited by child 
shells so you have to make sure that when bash is started by screen it 
runs "set -o vi".

Maybe you have set -o vi in ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile, but not in 
~/.bashrc?  See INVOCATION in bash(1).
