Actually, ^[OA is fine.  This one is sent when the keypad is put on
application mode.  This is more a problem in terminfo/ncurses.  Your
ncurses/terminfo is choosing to send this escape sequence.  So, try
chasing down why this escape sequence is being sent.

I had the impression that there was a newer, bug-fixed version of
ncurses, the one that started the ncurses flame war, sorry, I do not
know where this one is.

Cheers,
Miguel.
