Installing the following GTK2 rendering engines can help:
sudo apt install gtk2-engines-murrine:i386 gtk2-engines-pixbuf:i386
Had the same problem (Ubuntu MATE 14.04.5).
Solved it when I changed Skype style from "Desktop settings" to "Cleanlooks" (Options > General > "Choose style") and ran qtconfig as described here.
I only changed the font size in qtconfig, didn't do anything specific for tooltips, but they're displayed properly now.
