Have you tried to apply CSS on tooltip. Please refer below link, hope it will help you.

To improve the accessibility of hover text (tooltips) containing additional information, you can use the aria-describedby
attribute to associate the tooltip with the element it relates to. This will make it readable for users who rely on accessibility software, such as screen readers. Here's an example snippet for CSS of how you can implement this:
/* Styling for the tooltip */
#tooltip {
display: none;
position: absolute;
background-color: #000;
color: #fff;
padding: 10px;
z-index: 1;
}
/* Show the tooltip on hover */
#myButton:hover + #tooltip {
display: block;
}
the aria-describedby
attribute is used to associate the button (myButton
) with the tooltip (tooltip
). The role="tooltip"
attribute is added to the tooltip container, indicating its purpose.
By default, the tooltip is hidden (display: none
), and it becomes visible (display: block
) when the button is hovered (#myButton:hover + #tooltip
selector).

Tooltip listed over here works great in accesibility software! But I’m not sure how to replicate in Qualtrics surveys. Any sugggestions?
