Yes, but are you running it under Wayland, or is it running under X?

The PGTK port can run under both Wayland and X through GDK, and
different GDK backends behave very differently when it comes to
displaying tooltips from widgets inside offscreen windows.

IOW, what is the value of (pgtk-backend-display-class)?
