Can Tinnitus Cause Temporary Lightheadedness/Imbalance?

Does anyone know if tinnitus alone can cause you to feel lightheaded and feel like you have imbalance? Similar to being drunk? I'm not referring to ear conditions that cause tinnitus and lightheadedness/vertigo. I'm referring to tinnitus alone causing the symptom of lightheadedness when it's loud.

I've been feeling this way on and off for the past couple of years. I notice most of the time that it's worse when the tinnitus is worse and better or practically gone when the tinnitus is quiet. I have no hearing loss and no vertigo or spinning sensations. Just this strange imbalance feeling that the best way I can describe it is when you are really drunk while turning your head side to side quickly and feeling like your brain is loose in your skull if that makes any sense!

Thanks!

 

Can't it be BPPV? It does not necessarily cause vertigo, but rather imbalance.

 

I'm aware of correlation between the two, but not of causality.
