A user on the Steam forum (Tobi, post #11) identified another workaround:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/221380/discussions/2/622954302095447538/

This seems to work for me. When the scrolling gets stuck, if I go to the
settings and change all 4 of the scrolling hotkeys to different keys, it fixes
it and the game becomes playable again.

After doing that, if I Alt-Tab out of the game and back in again (even after
restarting the game), the scrolling gets stuck again. And I need to repeat the
above by changing the scrolling hotkeys to something else. So it seems like
using non-arrow keys for scrolling is insufficient as a workaround - you need
to reset the keys to something else each time it happens.

A more "permanent" (at least at the moment, on wine-staging 4.1) workaround is
to disable the up/down/left/right hotkeys completely (as mentioned in the Steam
post). So I changed all my scrolling keys to F11 (F11 is assigned by default to
toggle the in-game time display). This results in three of the four scrolling
hotkeys to be set to "???". Then I went back and re-assigned the in-game time
hotkey to F11. So now all 4 of my scrolling hotkeys appear as "???" (i.e.
unassigned/disabled), and the issue seems to be resolved.
