Tmux bind-key not working for split-window

I have following configuration in my tmux config file:

unbind C-b
set -g prefix C-s

bind-key - split-window -v
bind-key \ split-window -h

When I am in tmux, if I try

Ctrl+s : split-window -v

it works. If I try

Ctrl+s -

it does not work. It says No Buffer, and tmux does not do anything.

Any help on how can I debug this behaviour?

The - key is already bound to the delete-buffer command. You can check this by executing tmux list-keys. You must unbind it and then apply your binding:

unbind -
bind-key - split-window -v
