This perhaps:

“Mouse wheel doesn’t work any more since the latest kernel update on Leap 15.1 (kernel-default-4.12.14-lp151.28.4.1)”

That is probably it - in that case it would be challenging to get it fixed without compiling the kernel on my own…

Did you try booting to previous kernel???

if it works you can do this until the kernel gets fixed.
