Doesn't happen for me. I'm going to need some steps to reproduce. Steps
I tried:

1) Open book
2) Switch to flow mode
3) Start autoscroll
4) Open preferences and change autoscroll speed from 1 to 1.55
5) Close preferences
6) Wait 30 seconds. No jump back occurs

Try browsing the book in Paged mode first and then switch to Flow mode, whenever I change the autoscroll speed I will be jumped back to where I was when I switched to Flow mode.

Try this steps:

1) Open book
2) Switch to Paged mode
2) Browse book to next chapter
3) Switch to Flow mode
4) Start autoscroll
5) Wait for a while for some page turns to occur
5) Open preferences and change autoscroll speed from 1 to 1.55
6) Close preferences
7) You are jumped back to where you switched to Flow mode in step 3)

It works better now, because I am just jumped to the beginning of the current chapter and not to where I changed from Paged mode to Flow mode as before.

Please try:

1) Switch to Flow mode
2) Start autoscroll
3) Browse book to the middle or end of a chapter
4) Open preferences and change autoscroll speed
5) Close preferences
6) You are jumped to the beginning of the current chapter
