Same setup here. And I'm running xserver-xorg.

What does `xmodmap` return?
I just tried this:
$  xmodmap -e 'keycode 109 = Multi_key'
Then the following sequnece 
 <Control_R> o '
should yield 'ó'.
xterm didn't work for me either for this sequence, neither did mlterm.

 <Control_R> s s
should yield 'ß'.
This works in xterm, doesn't work in mlterm.

gnome-terminal was the only terminal that could handle these all. The
reason behind this is that gtk has it's own mapping tables for compose
sequences.

I find modifier keys easier to use, so I'm not using compose sequences.
This post was just to justify that you are not alone ;)
