JComboBox missing scrollbar in multi-monitor setup on smaller monitor

ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
KUbuntu 18.04LTS
2 monitors - one with a higher (larger) resolution than the other
Problem was reproduced with two different monitors configurations:
Larger Monitor = 2K resolution and Small Monitor = 1080p
Larger Monitor = 4K resolution and Small Monitor = 1080p

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
A JComboBox is rendered on an application that starts on the smaller monitor of a two monitor set up. The JComboBox has enough items that it will need a scrollbar on the smaller monitor, but not the larger. However, the scrollbar will not appear and some items in the JComboBox drop down will be inaccessible.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the application provided (a modified version of Java Tutorials Code Sample – ComboBoxDemo.java) on a system with two monitors of different sizes. Have the application start on the smaller monitor (this may not be necessary, but is the situation where we saw the defect) and click on the ComboBox. The scrollbar will be missing on the Combo Box pop up.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Scrollbar should be present on the ComboBox pop up.
ACTUAL -
The scrollbar will be missing on the Combo Box pop up.
