Research direction
Start by locating the UIA implementation for tooltip show and hide behavior. Read the existing event-handling paths and compare them with the UIA events expected by Windows screen readers. Done means the tooltip events are raised correctly for both showing and hiding and work as expected with all Windows screen readers.
