os: macOSbrowser: Chromium 151.0.7922.34viewport: 1280x720

Repro steps

  1. 1.Navigate to the React Aria Tooltip component documentation page (/docs/components/aria/tooltip)
  2. 2.Hover the cursor over the 'Hover' trigger button preview
  3. 3.Observe whether a tooltip popup appears above or around the button

Expected

Hovering the cursor over the 'Hover' trigger button should display the tooltip popup (e.g. 'Add to library' positioned above the trigger, as seen in the Base UI implementation).

Actual

No tooltip renders or displays when hovering over the 'Hover' trigger button in the React Aria preview.

Evidence

visualAt 3.0s and 5.0s, the cursor rests directly over the 'Hover' button on the React Aria documentation page, but no tooltip renders.
visualAt 23.0s, navigating to the Base UI Tooltip documentation (/docs/components/base/tooltip) and hovering the 'Hover' button successfully renders the 'Add to library' tooltip above the trigger.

### Summary
When viewing the React Aria Tooltip component documentation page, hovering over the preview's `Hover` trigger button fails to display the tooltip.

### Steps to Reproduce
1. Go to `/docs/components/aria/tooltip` (0.0s).
2. Hover the cursor over the `Hover` trigger button in the preview area (3.0s - 9.0s).
3. Scroll down and hover again (11.0s - 15.0s).

### Expected Behavior
A tooltip popup should appear when hovering over the trigger element.

### Actual Behavior
No tooltip element appears on initial hover in the React Aria implementation.

### Comparison / Control
Switching to the Base UI tab (`/docs/components/base/tooltip`) at 17.5s and hovering over the same preview button correctly displays the 'Add to library' tooltip above the trigger at 23.0s.
