I tested with overlay scrollbars disabled, and I noticed the following:

Scrolling with the mouse wheel does not work (in either case).
Scrolling by clicking the scrollbar _does_ work.
You can scroll if you click an empty area in the list and use the arrow keys.
The thumb for the overlay scrollbar never appears.

There is a bug report upstream, so I'm linking to that one. I'm adding overlay scrollbars to the bug report, too, because of the problem with the thumb.

I wonder if anyone needs any additional information or something... It's just silence now.

A workaround is being discussed in the Gnome bug tracker: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673644

Scrolling has stopped working for me since I upgraded from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04. The slim scroll bar appears on the right hand edge of the window, but this does not change to the small scroll bar widget when the mouse moves onto the bar. Attempts to drag the bar also fail.

Keyboard scrolling only works in grid view.

It seems that the fix has already been committed to the clutter-1.10 branch http://git.gnome.org/browse/clutter/commit/?h=clutter-1.10&id=d0a06834d84f6c0d51ee75c3de79c8c37c1156b6 Hopefully the new, or at least patched, package of clutter will reach Precise soon. We will see if it works.
