On Ubuntu 16.04 with recent images I can reproduce the behaviour, with
the following additional observations:

- It doesn't seem to matter whether true type fonts are enabled or not.
- After increasing the font size to medium and opening the browser:
-- The (vertical) scroll bar isn't visible, it is possible to scroll
using the mouse wheel or cursor keys.
-- Increasing the width of the browser so the scroll bar is visible,
but not clicking on the scroll bar, scrolling using the mouse wheel or
cursor keys still works.
-- Once the scroll bar has been clicked on it fails as you describe.

HTH,
Alistair.
