Really? Soundwave was trying so hard to be quiet for Nightshroud's sake and here Starscream was wanting him to play the audio of the Spymaster giving his dramatic speech to Zeta Prime and the rest of the High Council.
The one with him yelling.
Soundwave sighed as he shook his helm. What was he going to do with Starscream..? "I suppose I can, however I shall not play it at full volume as I had before. I do not wish to disturb your sparkling who slumbers so peacefully. She needs the recharge." They all did honestly, but Nightshroud desperately needed it as she shifted just a little more in her sleep pulling the tarp a little closer to herself. Soundwave couldn't help but smile. She seemed almost like a completely different bot when relaxed and calm, and maybe one day she would be like that not just for Starscream. Queueing up the requested audio, the Spymaster began to play it albeit a little quieter.
The Spymaster stared into Starscream's optics while playing the audio, watching for every little change as the seeker listened to his apparent favorite quitting one's job speech. Once it was over, Soundwave leaned in for that kiss just as he promised.

"I WON'T STAND HERE PRETENDING TO BE BETTER THAN THOSE LABORING IN THE MINES AND THE SMELTYARDS. YOU STAND FOR NOTHING NOW, ZETA, EXCEPT DEATH. WHAT IS THE POINT OF YOUR EXISTENCE? AND YOU... YOU WAIT AND MAKE EXCUSES AND DO NOTHING TO KICK HIS USELESS TAILPIPE. THE SYSTEM IS YOUR TYRANT. YOU ARE WEAK. YOU ARE PATHETIC. IT SHAMES ME TO SIT HERE AND LISTEN TO YOUR SELF-JUSTIFYING PRATTLE MONTH ON MONTH. YOU HAVE HAD KILOCYCLES, AND THIS IS ALL YOU HAVE MANAGED. TELL ME, WHAT WILL WE DO? RESEARCH, REPORTS... MORE DELAYS. I AM THROUGH TALKING TO YOU. EVERYTHING FALLS ON DEAF AUDIALS. THERE IS NO POINT IN SPEECHES; ONLY ACTIONS COUNT."
