The "music in your head" theme seems to pop up here every now and then. I haven't experienced this with meds, but do have very vivid auditory "hallucinations" if I go without sleep for a long time. I put hallucinations in quotation marks because I know they aren't real -- but when I'm really tired, some piece of music can start "playing" loudly and in great detail, as if it's suddenly been unearthed from somewhere in my deep memory.
Lack of sleep definitely messes up neurotransmitter levels, so I don't see why some neurotransmitter-affecting drugs couldn't do the same thing. I guess the biggest worry would be if you start to believe it's real -- that's definitely something to talk with your pdoc about!
