commitpull/73/head5815534("qt: make the time tooltip a tooltip") reintroduced the bug fixed by previous commitea99237("remove X11BypassWindowManagerHint from time tooltip") meant to fix #17829. The tooltip window is a shaped, override-redirect window which shows when the pointer enters the slider and disappears when it leaves the slider. By placing the tooltip window too low, above the slider, vlc causes a constant map/unmap of that window which will flood Xwayland and the Wayland compositori.window manager and can up with a deadlock situation. When the tooltip window is showing, the pointer will enter the tooltip window and thus leave the slider, which will cause the tooltip to be unmapped, which in turn causes the pointer to re-enter the slider area, which will cause the tooltip to show again, so on and so forth. On Wayland/Xwayland where the Wayland compositor (i.e. the display server) is also the window manager, that can lead to a deadlock situation because some X11 requests are blocking on rountrips to the Xserver, which in the case of Xwayland is also a Wayland client, waiting on the Wayland compositor for some operations, the Wayland compositor being also a Window manager and an X11 client at the same time... Avoid the issue by placing the tooltip so that it does not show up at the same location where the slider is, without overlap, to avoid that map/unmap requests storm.
