Hi Mike:
Notice in the story that they were able to suppress the tinnitus
by playing white noise; that indicates some events in the inner
ear were likely driving the brain activity.

A case study of a single patient appears to indicate that
when he experienced tinnitus areas of the auditory cortex

The original research report appears in the journal
