In the theatre when one actor needs to speak to another (and the audience need to hear it) but he doesn't what a third actor to hear, he speaks in a stage whisper - a slightly lower tone of voice than used in the rest of the play. From this has come the meaning of a slightly-loud comment someone makes - not as loud as a direct comment to someone, but enough for others to hear it.
