I also removed this CSS code. It was not allowing the menu to scroll if it was too tall and the header was fixed:

/* remove pointer event from menu module mobile wrapper */
.et_pb_module.et_pb_menu .et_mobile_nav_menu {
	pointer-events: none;
}

/* make menu module hamburger icon and menu links interactive again */
.et_pb_module.et_pb_menu .et_mobile_nav_menu .mobile_menu_bar,
.et_pb_module.et_pb_menu .et_mobile_nav_menu .et_mobile_menu li a {
	pointer-events: auto;
}
