Why don't people that are deaf due to cochlea damage do not suffer from motion sickness?

People who are deaf due to cochlea damage do not suffer from motion sickness. Why not?Why don't people that are deaf due to cochlea damage do not suffer from motion sickness?The cochlea is attached to the semicircular canals (SCCs), the organ that senses spinning and sends the message to the brain that is interpreted as vertigo, or motion sickness. Just like the cochlea isn't sending a sound message to the brain, the SCCs isn't sending a dizziness message to the brain either.

I have a cholesteatoma and that's what caused it somehow. The doctor said that this means there must be damage to my cochlear. If my cochlear is damaged, why do I still experience dizziness and tinnitus in my deaf ear?
