DATA:
Just chiming in to report that I'm seeing this issue with the following freshly installed:
Python 3.10.4
tkinter 8.6.12
PySimpleGUI 4.57.0
OS is Windows 10

As others have report it is related to the cursor entering the tool tip box before clicking the button.

OBSERVATIONS:
I've noticed that the tool tip always seems to appear up and to the right of the cursor. If I approach the button by moving the cursor down & left, the tool tip appears when the cursor enters the button, then as I continue to move the cursor to the center of the button I'm moving AWAY FROM the tool tip, and the issue doesn't appear.

However, if I approach the button by moving the cursor up and to the right, the tool tip appears as the cursor enters the button, and it overlaps the button. As I continue to move the cursor to the center of the button, it enters the tool tip box and triggers this fault.

The only 100% effective workaround appears to be not using tooltips. That is a loss of function, and not an acceptable long term solution.
