Is this issue just for the control center, or should it be a user-wide setting? This behavior is infuriating and negatively affects me on countless surfaces.

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, or any of the slider controls, it inadvertently changes those options. The ability to change drop-down-menu selections, using the mouse- scroll-wheel is convenient in some cases, but it becomes 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.
