Using event_data("plotly_hover", source="mysource") seems to trigger the following warning with the newest plotly version:
Warning: The 'plotly_hover' event tied a source ID of 'mysource' is not registered. In order to obtain this event data, please add event_register(p, 'plotly_hover') to the plot (p) that you wish to obtain event data from.

library(shiny)
library(plotly)

ui <- fluidPage(
        plotlyOutput("myplot"),
        verbatimTextOutput("hovered")
      )

server <- function(input, output, session) {
    
    output$myplot <- renderPlotly({
        p <- plot_ly(faithful, x=~eruptions, y=~waiting, source="mysource")
        return(p)
    })
    
    output$hovered <- renderPrint({
      event_data("plotly_hover", source="mysource")
    })

}

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)
