Checkbox tooltip in PDF doesn't match description set in InDesign

I'm making check boxes for accessible pdf forms in InDesign. I have a problem that occurs in both the 2020 and the 2021 version of the porgram. I include the check box’s Name, Description and Value in ID. The client has very specific requirements where the boxes are mutually excluside (i.e., checking box #2 turns of box #1). They do not want radio buttons because they want users to be able to turn off all the choices, which you can't do once you’ve selected a radio button. I can achieve this by giving all the checkboxes a shared button Name but different button Values. The behaviour works as requied. However, the tooltips don’t match what I've programmed in ID. In the attached files (ID and PDF), the programmed ID Descriptions are box 1, box 2 and box 3 and the Values are one, two and three but the Tooltips are all box2 and the Values are all Box. Does anybody know why this is happening? I don’t want to have to manually change all this in Acrobat if it should work as programmed.
