What kind of 'non-commercial flight'?
Yes, you can have installation problems, but (a) most often sound
quality's a function of the headset you're using which is why no one
cheaps out (or should cheap out) on their headset and (b) if you're
talking about the in-cabin speaker on something like a 172 those are
there just as an alternative source of noise (of which you've already
got plenty...) and maybe as an emergency device in the case of headset
failure.
