Scroll bug in universal control

Hey, I want to control my macbook by ipad's magic keyboard via universal control.

Everything works fine except scrolling on mac from magic keyboard's touch bar.

When I want to scroll a page on my macbook from the magic keyboard's touch bar, I do a scroll move, but a page moves only to a short distance, I mean fast scrolling of pages doesn't work.


Also other touch bars gestures from magic keyboard's touch bar don't work on macbook via universal control.


Everything works fine in vise-versa. I mean all touch bar gestures from macbook's touch bar work fine in ipad via universal control.


Is there a way to fix these issues?
