SUMMARY
If I open the KCM via context menu of desktop, the tooltip about DDC/CI always appears when I hover over the "i" icon. However, the said tooltip does not appear consistently if I open System Settings via Kickoff (or via icon on desktop) and then go to Display Configuration KCM. Please watch the attached screen recording.

EXPECTED RESULT
the tooltip always appears when we hover over the "i" icon

I can reproduce the "Automatically adjust the screen’s brightness based on the lighting level of the environment" having a weird click area *sometimes*, though i don't exactly reproduce the differences between the ways of opening the KCM. Maybe it's something about the formlayout and being in a row with a checkbox?
