Tooltip conflicts with select control

I have added today's download of jquery-1.9.1.js, ui-lightness/jquery-ui-1.10.3.custom.css, and jquery-ui-1.10.3.custom.min.js, have not customized anything, and have used this in my page:

<script type="text/javascript">

$(function() {

$(document).tooltip();

});

</script>

The select controls in the page all have title="blah" attribtes, which, again, I have not changed. In IE 10 under Windows 7, after this addition of the UI tooltip call, all select controls became unusuable because of the tooltip.

Sorry I don't have the time to jsFiddle or test other browsers!
