Description Sam Crawford 2026-01-18 20:24:02 UTC 
SUMMARY
There is a visual bug where the hover info is stuck on the panel after closing the media player without leaving focus.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the media player widget while there is something running/paused.
2. Hover over the timeline until the time tooltip appears.
3. Close the media player without moving the mouse (e.g. by using the Meta key) 

OBSERVED RESULT
The tooltip remains (stuck on the panel). The only way to remove it is by manually opening the widget again, hover over the timeline and then move the mouse away before closing the widget

EXPECTED RESULT
The tooltip disappears with the widget.
