Hi Dwain,
I've tested it on OSX 10.9.5 using Scribus 1.4.4
(and 1.5.0svn (built with Qt 5.3.2)) and can't reproduce your issue.

If you can offer a little more sophistication in your reporting for
example:
1) open preferences
2) click mouse on option X (explain the result of this)
3) scroll down now with down arrow key
4) press the enter key
etc...etc...
Also it is way more ideal to submit this to the bug tracker at
http://bugs.scribus.net then post on the ML.

Thanks!
