Of course by disabling Mutemaster they're going to accidentally activate the cannon.

Boss, if they make us find seven lost crystals, I'm quitting.

Dammit Almond will you calm your poo poo for two seconds you're going to blow everyone up :argh:

Almond is honestly my least favorite character in this comic, but I say that while every character is completely wonderful and perfect. She's just...the least perfect. Mainly because I feel like, at some point (like right now), she's going to screw everything up really badly by being so headstrong and quick to action.

V: Hence the "but I say that while every character is completely wonderful and perfect".

Almond's going to need a comeuppance soon, since it's become real clear that she's exactly the kind of "hero" this adventure doesn't need.

She already did screw things up really badly by summoning the Nightmare Knight. Everything after is just icing on the cake.

I think she's at least on to something in that Noisemaster wouldn't be talking if it didn't give him some kind of advantage. Her reasoning is probably something like "Galactiqueen Meteorea always stalls for time like this."

Cuco and Carrot aren't aware of it, but Almond rifled through Mayor Lute's drawers and hoiked everything useful within the first thirty seconds of being invited inside.

Nautilus is aware of it, but Almond is the legendary hero after all.

Noisemaster doesn't grasp the finer details of strategy. "Don't tell your enemy how to beat you" was like, chapter two.

Does he now? He has an ally that gets disabled by loud noises and he built a superweapon that gets activated by loud noises. They might simply be tricking the less smart people in the party (read: Almond) in triggering said superweapon at the cost of a mild headache for Mutemaster. Bonus points if he calls Almond on it, extra bonus points if he mentions this is the first time the one that fell for it was not the hero but a party member.

This is a really lovely plan then.

Splashmaster wrecked Princess Nautilus' home. I expect this cannon to go off, and that the castle we run into at each other land gets wrecked (maybe excepting one, to play with our expectations.)

Well, he's the sound guy, so it's his only choice really. Although it would be pretty amusing if he had some weapon with a totally non-thematic "element" for this exact reason.

If his weakness was something uncommon like silver or whatever I'd agree, but noise is not exactly a rare commodity. Since he can't really stop people from shouting at Mutemaster, having some way to take advantage of how they probably will seems like a sound idea in theory, even though the execution's been sloppy if that was the idea.
