That item was switched off by default because it drove sighted mouse users nuts.
You can't tab to any buttons without activating the tooltip first.

There may be 2 or more buttons like cancel or execute now and what happens depends on which button is clicked. Just wondering since I don't get too many of them, perhaps I have this feature turned off to avoid the active mouse from moving around automagically but it is something to consider when looking at when and why things lock up or read phantom things, by the way, this has not happened in some time now after having turned off some things and I think one or more of them were related to the mouse automatically doing some things. Anyway, this is something to keep in mind when things freez up.

The default is Insert-Numpad-Plus. If it can't be done it will say, "Unable to route mouse to tool tip." If it does work it will say, "Mouse routed to tool tip," or something similar. Then you can left click on it with the Single click left button hot key, Numpad-Slash. I give the names of these keys so if you're using the laptop layout you can simply look them up in the Window-Eyes control panel under Hot keys, Mouse.
