We don't have them on the nozzles, but our pumps blare out the audio at hearing damage volumes.
And they wonder why that brand of station is avoided.
Often times you can press one of the buttons to mute it, although apparently some pumps have decided you're not allowed to decide when you want to hear your own thoughts. Just start pushing the buttons on either side of the screen, chances are one of them will shut it up.

If I can't mute them I take my knife and destroy the speaker if its accessible.
They're kinda hard to get to, but hey, if they want to chase off customers, who am I to stop them?
