[TYPO3] Automatic tooltip on all keywords?

I have been using the TitleTips extension for some time now. I have found 
that if the keyword is the firs in a sentence, the titletip is not 
automatically added. It seems that if the keyword is next to fx a <p> tag it 
is not recognized as the keyword.

"<p>Keyword etc. etc.....</p>"

The same goes with key-sentences, where the ever irritating &nbsp; tag finds 
it way in between the words.

"This is my&nbsp;keyword sentence etc. etc. "

How can I get around this?

Best regards,
Lasse
