MyGica Android box input issue

I tried to install Retroarch onto my android box (MyGica 582) last night and for some reason i was unable to scroll down using any of the input devices i tried. i attempted to use my rii i8 mini keyboard and could select any in frame options using the touch pad but couldn’t use the d-pad to scroll down. Same problem for a physical usb keyboard, wired game pad and wired mouse w/wheel… did i miss a config file somewhere because? I installed Retroarch directly from the Google Play store so figure it should work… Any advice would be appreciated!
