What causes auditory hallucinations in the brain? For example, when you are sleep deprived, it is possible to hear things very clearly as if they were real. For example, voices of people talking, which some people with schizophrenia experience commonly in their daily lives. But of course there is no input from the ears. So what exactly is happening and how is that possible?

I have multiple forms of tinnitus. At some times, it sounds like voices (usually like what you would imagine 30’s/40’s radios voices would be), and those voices then take on the words of my thoughts, mostly incoherent, and I can actually direct what they say by thinking different things. Only happens when it’s really quiet and there’s some sort of white noise to fuel it. My ENT says it’s not common, but it’s a thing.
