I have it and sleep is not a factor, caffeine intake definitely is.

Too many coffees or teas during a day and it gets super loud.

I sleep amazingly well 8 hours week days and sometimes 10 on a weekend, but it is not any different if I have had only 5 hours sleep.

I don't think the article claims any correlation regarding that. They're saying that during sleep it gets inhibited - which we don't notice either way.

I wasn't sure because of these statements

While many individuals with tinnitus report poor sleep and show poor sleep patterns, the potential connection to this crucial bodily function has only recently come to light.

We could actually see these sleep problems appear at the same time as tinnitus after noise exposure.

No sleep Correlation for me

Same here, after a lifetime of living with it it’s not sleep. For me it seems to be correlated with inflammation in general.
