I confess that something weird happened to my left ear this weekend. Everything sounds all... weird... It’s hard to describe. There's like weird reverberations but it also sounds mechanical... like maybe everything is coming though a really crappy old microphone. No idea what caused it, it just started up randomly.
It's frankly got me a tiny bit worried.
I confess.....I think I know exactly what you're talking about.

It happened to me twice in my life, and both times, it was when I was starting a new job. Mine were caused by excessive anxiety at the first day of work,(to the point of being overwhelmed) with no escape, and after about 4-6 hours...it started(in both ears). It lasted all day, and started to fade as the day was ending. Then when i woke up the next day, it was gone. When i went to work the 2nd day, it happened again, only less severe, and didn't last as long.(maybe 8 hours) You're description, is about the best way I could think to describe it, and it sounds like what i went through. I have no idea what is causing yours, but mine was definitely due to anxiety. Hmm....Maybe that helped a little?
Anyway...I confess....whenever I open up a new bag of potato chips, I break the big ones into smaller pieces so i can stuff more into my mouth.
