I had the same issue. Simple solution:

In Android monitor, on the right, change No Filters -> Show only selected application.

I actually just had a problem (in 1.2.2) where I couldn't keep it from scrolling. I tried all the tricks and proper methods mentioned here, but it kept scrolling out from under me.

Turns out there was a problem trying to connect to an emulator that had long since been disconnected, and it kept retrying. And every time it did, it reloaded everything causing logcat to refresh. So it wasn't REALLY scrolling, it just felt like it was because of how big the buffer is.

I unplugged my physical device (that was running along side the emulator), restarted Android Studio, plugged the physical device back in, and boom, it no longer kept "scrolling".

Hopefully this might help someone else. Because I was getting incredibly frustrated for a while, there.

Goodness, the trick is to search. Search for something within LogCat and then scrolling will stop. Tested: running Android Studio 1.1.0 against a real device (S5). Also, was ticking one line up and one back down until I then right clicked. Then it totally stopped. After that, I can remove the search and the scrolling is no longer automatic.
