Do deaf people still feel pain when they're exposed to really loud sounds?

The discovery of how we get pain from loud sounds is surprisingly recent--like 2015. There's a separate set of nerves that run from the hearing organs in the inner ear that seem to just be for reacting to sounds loud enough to cause hearing damage. We don't really understand how it works.

There are many, many causes of hearing loss. Any of the causes that don't damage these fibers or stop whatever process makes them fire would presumably leave this response intact. Hypersensitivity to sounds is actually a symptom associated with some kinds of hearing loss!
