Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the settings panel on XFCE/GTK with Manjaro 22.1.2, focusing on whether scrolling over a select box changes its value. Trace the settings-panel select-box behavior; it is done when scrolling over the control no longer changes the selected value.
