Description
### Steps to reproduce
1. Where are you starting? What can you see?
I am looking at my room list with message previews enabled. I can see a truncated version of the message as expected.
2. What do you click?
I hover my cursor over the preview to see the full message in the form of a tool tip
3. Sometimes it renders, sometimes it does not. Web does not have this problem, on web it always renders.
### Outcome
#### What did you expect?
To consistently see the message preview expanded in a tooltip
#### What happened instead?
It _sometimes_ renders.
This is not a new bug, I have noticed for a few months, just recording it now.
