I notice the same: the Ctrl+Scroll breaks quite often in the latest beta. I haven't identified reliable reproducing steps yet.
When it is broken, it is not just a small time delay. I can continue scrolling and zooming in other tabs, then go back to the broken one and the Ctrl+Scroll is still broken. Making a simple Scroll without Ctrl makes it recover.

This problem is making the reader very painful to use. I need to make additional scrolls all the time to fix the broken zoom. Even the Ctrl++ and Ctrl+- are broken.
See a screen recording showing the problem. You can see at the beginning of the video that the Ctrl+Scroll shortcut is broken. Then it is fixed by making some additional scrolling. Then broken again, just making scrolling with the mouse (at around 19 seconds).
The best reproducing steps I could find so far are: 1) Let the infinite wheel rotate freely to go up or down 2) Stop it suddenly 3) Try to zoom with the shortcut Ctrl+Scroll -> Nothing happens.

I have the same issue as described by OP - it has been present for weeks if not months in Zotero 7 Beta and still currently in Release v7.0.3.
I can reproduce the issue (in Windows 10) exactly as @pcinque describes. CTRL++ and CTRL+- always work as expected, but CTRL+MouseWheel frequently breaks.

Note though that I do not see anymore the problem of time delay when switching from scrolling to zooming, which is a very nice improvement.
