Yes, that's what I meant. They don't display on focus, only on hover.

FYI title-based tooltips are not accessible: they only display for mouse users (e.g., sighted keyboard-only users don't get anything). If they have custom JS that renders an accessible tooltip you may be fine, but if not, and those tooltips convey important information, they may in fact be non-compliant.
