--- Comment #4 from Timur <gtimur at gmail.com> ---
There are 2 issues here: 

1. Fileopen DOCX opens Alt Text from MSO as Description in LO, not as
Alternative.
Help doesn't explain Description and for "Alternative text" says "Enter the
text to display in a web browser when the selected item is unavailable."

2. Export as PDF doesn't export alt text from neither field.  
Must be tested with PDF reader that supports alt text. 
While not clear how Description should be exported, Alternative doesn't work.
Regression, because (after 5.0 didn't) LO 6.0 used to export properly
"Alternative text" (as explained in 1. not from DOCX but typed) and LO 6.1
doesn't again.

Let's start from 2. so I remove docx from the title.  
There are other bugs with alt text interop issues for other objects and
formats.
During testing with master 7.0+, image wasn't exported once if Alternative was
set in Image-Options, I can't say why.  

Note: headless is not needed and is wrong to report unless it happens only in
headless, which is not the case here.
