The article is in Science Translational Medicine (I believe). This could be good. I have heard of a clinical trial where they implanted a vagus nerve stimulator in your chest and then you followed the same kind of auditory stimulation while the vagus nerve was being stimulated but this gets there without surgery.
We should stay tuned.

New research could help millions who suffer from ‘ringing in the ears’
In the largest clinical trial of its kind, researchers show that combining sound and electrical stimulation of the tongue can significantly reduce tinnitus, commonly described as “ringing in the ears.” They also found that therapeutic effects can be sustained for up to 12 months post-treatment.
