As stated in "Other info", this is a setting in Logitech Options app, not in the OS. Disabling smooth scrolling in the app resolved the issue for me.

Same problem here, thanks for the fix.

Same here, but in my experience, there's a probability that smooth scrolling and scroll on client side work together. I'm also on Windows 10 to Windows 10.

Thanks for the workaround. Disabling "Smooth Scroll" (enabled by default) in Logitech Options on the Barrier server immediately resolved the same issue of Barrier client machine missing mouse scroll wheel input.

It also works for me, thanks for the tip 👍
I'm using barrier on Win 10 to Ubuntu 20.04.
The problem happens when the Logitech program is installed on the server-side (Win10 in my case).

Thanks a lot for the solution. I was wondering why the scrolling does NOT work sometimes and finally fixed it by disabling the smooth scroll. I have opened another issue about this here: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/1516 and will close that issue soon after this post.

I realized that the client side scrolling will NOT work only when the server's active window is NOT a browser. This is a very weird behavior. If you make the server's active window be a browser, the client side scrolling will work without any issues in smooth scrolling mode.
