A light effort sounds a lot like the ship thruster sound in Asteroids. I find I can clench the muscle, but can only and occasionally relax the thing. When I do clench, my ear response curve in the midrange, say 800Hz to a few KHz, is improved. Have a fan handy? Try it and listen. You may hear a lot more from that fan.

I have had the same thing my whole life that I can remember but no tinnitus. If I clench my jaw enough I get that roaring rumble. I assumed it was normal.
