ionic scroll: Prevent translate3d on parent element - angularjs

Question

I have template in my ionic app that looks something like this:
<ion-view>
<ion-content>
<div class="nav">
<span class="ion-chevron-left" ng-click="goToMonth('thisMonth', $event)"></span>
<span>{{ monthName }}</span>
<span class="ion-chevron-right" ng-click="goToMonth('nextMonth', $event)"></span>
</div>
<ion-scroll on-scroll="onScroll()" class="wide-as-needed" delegate-handle="calendarScroll" direction="x" paging="true" scrollbar-x="false" style="min-height: 215px" ng-style="scrollStyle">
...
the div with the class 'nav' contains two buttons that let the user switch between two months. The months are in the <ion-scroll> element.
This works as it should. The buttons scroll the <ion-scrol> element horizontally. But every time the buttons are used, the entire <ion-view> is scrolled vertically down by 20px - thus hiding the buttons.
I've tried changing the <ion-scroll>s inline css (with angular.element) to not include 3d transforms, but they just get re-added.
This is the function that gets called upon click - and my attempt to prevent the transform3d on the parent element
$scope.goToMonth = function(id, event){
$location.hash(id);
if(id == 'thisMonth'){
$scope.monthName = monthLabels[thisMonth];
}
else{
$scope.monthName = monthLabels[nextMonth];
}
var elm = angular.element(document.querySelector('.nav'));
var parent = angular.element(elm.parent());
console.log(parent[0].style.transform);
parent[0].style.transform = 'none';
$ionicScrollDelegate.anchorScroll(true);
};
EDIT: I've also tried using event.stopPropagation - this breaks the functionality of the <ion-scroll> element
Can anyone tell me how to prevent this behaviour?

Silly me. It turns out this was very simple to solve. I simply just needed to add scroll="false" to the <ion-content> element. No additional controller logic was needed.
So the html code above now looks like this:
<ion-view>
<ion-content scroll="false">// <-- Here I altered the html
<div class="nav">
<span class="ion-chevron-left" ng-click="goToMonth('thisMonth', $event)"></span>
<span>{{ monthName }}</span>
<span class="ion-chevron-right" ng-click="goToMonth('nextMonth', $event)"></span>
</div>
<ion-scroll on-scroll="onScroll()" class="wide-as-needed" delegate-handle="calendarScroll" direction="x" paging="true" scrollbar-x="false" style="min-height: 215px" ng-style="scrollStyle">
