That sudden silence followed by a minutes tinnitus every couple of months is the weirdest thing.
I had sudden tinnitus start in my left ear pulsing a high pitch with my heartbeat. Then slowly a crackling started in my right with its volume based on what I'm hearing. Now Im bombarded with noise every moment of every day. Docs have basically said "welp this is your life now". The Antidepressants arent cheap either!
Have you found anything that helps yet? Brown noise? This is also supposed to help: https://trudenta.com/this-simple-trick-may-help-with-tinnitus/
I've had tinnitus since I was born, that trick does help, but only for a couple minutes. I just live with at this point, I've never had true silence so idk what I'm even missing
