Not sure I understand the question.
You stated that interface design without the underlying interaction
is graphic design. I'm curious what you would then call interface
design with the underlying visual design. Would you call that
interaction design or something else?
Traditional interface design doesn't exist without visual design. In
my mind, it exists in the overlap between interaction and graphic
design. Removing the visual aspect, you are likely doing another kind
of design (interaction, sound, industrial). Remove the interaction
(behavior) aspect and only leaving the visual, you are doing graphic
design.
It could be argued that any physical/sensory layer, be it sound,
physical controls/form, haptics, or visuals, placed on top of a layer
of digital behavior, is interface design as well.
