This is a long standing by-design behavior. I believe it was for performance concerns. Tooltips will not work in Play mode. In more recent versions of Unity, there's a Project Setting to re-enable tooltips in play mode.

How to reproduce:
1. Open the user’s attached “Repro.zip” project
2. Enter Play Mode
3. In the Project window select “SM_Walk_Fwd” (Assets > AnimationSyncDemo > Tests)
4. In the Inspector window, move the cursor on the green marker

Expected result: Tooltip is shown
Actual result: Tooltip is not shown

Reproducible with: 2021.3.29f1, 2022.3.6f1, 2023.1.6f1, 2023.2.0b2

Reproduced on: macOS 13.4.1 (Intel)

Note: not reproducible without entering Play Mode
