I've worked in schools where the teachers cared very little, and noise there was a constant I've worked in schools where they cared very much, and controlled it effectively and plenty of places in between. There is of course a separate problem here, that the teacher may not be doing enough to control the class that's impossible for any of us to really answer without being there. If that is exactly what the student did, and it wasn't very well received, then perhaps let the student know that the teacher may have been having a difficult time (stress etc.) and to not let one bad experience throw him off and then spend a little time reinforcing the correct ways to deal with the problem to give him some good tools in his toolbox.

If he couldn't hear the announcement, he should either raise his hand and tell his teacher that he can't hear politely - not addressing the cause of the noise, simply addressing the specific problem at hand - or after it was over, ask the teacher politely what the announcement was about, as he couldn't hear. If he was shushing the other kids, it's almost certainly not the right action - whether it is "playing adult", or contributing to noise, or whatever, I've very rarely seen a situation where one kid telling other kids to be quiet was productive. So what I'd do in this case, is ascertain to what extent the child was taking the appropriate action for the situation. That led to social issues, and led to me continuing to believe I was better than the other kids up until I ran into the brick wall of puberty - and even after, in many ways, until the lessons from my friend in high school. When I was hushing them, I was reminding them that I was smarter/more mature than they were, and putting them in their place. than everyone else, largely because I was told that I was by my parents and my teachers - not necessarily in a bad way, I'd note I was probably analytically smarter than the other kids, and they wanted to encourage me to keep learning, and I in many ways did act more mature than the other kids - and not really taught humility sufficiently (as hard as that is to do). The issue for me was primarily that I believed I was smarter/better/etc. I never was called a tattle tale by a teacher (certainly frequently by the students), but to some extent I wish I had been - not in that way, mind you, it sounds like (unless the child is leaving out details) the teacher didn't handle it in a very mature way - but at some point in my late elementary school or early middle school career, it would've been nice for someone to explain to me exactly what I was doing: putting myself above my classmates, and as such ensuring I would not have any friends until high school, at which point an older student who I had made friends with explained all of this to me. As such, I was very frequently the child in the OP: telling the kids in the class to shush. I was the 'perfect' student as a child always the teacher's pet, always the top of the class, always wanting everyone else to follow the rules. I don't know if any of this applies to your friend's child as I don't know him, but perhaps it will for others in a similar situation if nothing else. I will answer this from the point of view of, once upon a time, the child in this situation.
