Public bug reported:
The Gnome Sound Settings tab contains enough options to where you have
to scroll down to see them all.
Since the scrollbar is so narrow, I use my mouse-scroll-wheel to achieve
this scroll navigation.
However, while scrolling with the intention of "navigation", if the
mouse-cursor passes over the Output Device drop-down-menu, it
inadvertently changes the drop-down's selection.
The ability to change drop-down-menu selections, using the mouse-scroll-
wheel is convenient in some cases, but it become problematic when the
user is simply intending to do scroll navigation.
I can see a non-advance user accidentally changing sound settings that
they had no intention of changing in this design. Plus, even if they do
notice the inadvertent changes, they might not know "what to change it
back to".
It may be better to disable scroll driven option selection changes in
these menus.
