You can try moving the mouse cursor to the top-left corner before the
tooltip is shown (th-show-tooltip-for-point), so that it's out of the

   (set-mouse-position (selected-frame) 0 0)

If it solves the problem I'll add it to the source.

There's a face called tooltip. I think that can be customized.
