Thanks for your advice..

I had the EXACT same issue and found your question. Couldn't find the answer anywhere so I just held the speaker firmly, with one hand gripping each side of the housing, and pulled. It came apart very easily (be careful not to yank it and damage the wiring!) but having said that a) my speakers are 7 years old now so perhaps the glue degraded a little and b) Over the years the have been battered a little and that one may have been dropped. Even so, I bet if you put a narrow but reasonably robust metal object in there (not sure if any coin would be thin enough)and twist it, I bet the halves would separate).
After pulling them apart, the two halves do still fit together securely enough to stay in place, but only JUST, it takes no effort to separate them. Therefore some glue is probably a good idea, but I haven't used any yet.

I had a similar problem with my Sound Sticks. One of the little speakers had come loose from it's bracket, probably from some rough handling during a recent move. I was able to use a pair of plastic spudgers to gently pry off the top half of the housing. From there, it was just a matter of snapping the little speaker back into its brackets. I replaced the housing and it seems to stay in place, but not securely. I'll probably use some clear tape to secure it if it becomes a nuisance.

I had the exact same problem as yours. None of the solutions offered online for opening the Soundsticks II speaker housing worked for me. What finally worked was to carefully grab the perforated cover of the affected speaker with hemostats (using 2 pairs at once, top and bottom) and pull, not push, the speaker back into place.
I tried doing this by pulling wire through the perforations, but didn't have wire that is both strong (like a paper clip) and flexible (like a twist tie) enough for the job. Maybe the right paper clip would do it.
One half of the speaker can go in fairly easily, but pulling both sides in can be difficult. I added super glue to one side, pulled that side in, waited briefly, then pulled the other side of the speaker in.
When doing this it’s important to make sure alignment is correct. Each speaker fits only one way, with no angular deviation.
I worried that the perforated cover would break, but it didn't. It scratched some through the ordeal, though.

The volume on my sound stick will only go up so high. Any ideas?
