I'm curious what this means with regards to someone who is deaf? Language comprehension and the auditory system are decoupled, with obvious empirical evidence (people who can't hear can still read, write, and speak). What is a 'voice in your head' for a deaf person?

Not deafness, but there's a visual hallucination that affects people with deteriorating eyesight. It's called "Charles Bonnet Syndrome". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_release_hallucinations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_release_hallucinations You can hear about it here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b071fs79 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b071fs79
