Description

When trying to set a keybind that uses the scroll wheel as an input, the key capture outputs Niri sysmkeys despite being used on Hyprland. This isn't corrected when being written to binds-user.lua, causing Hyprland to throw up an error message.

Expected Behavior

No response

Steps to Reproduce

1. Try to set a keybinding on through the DMS settings panel while using Hyprland
2. Save the binding.
