In all likelihood we'll get our answer when the game comes out and all the terminals are available to listen to. It's pretty much unavoidable for Spark to not comment on how the Covenant managed to land on Halo and release the Flood after all.

I think everyone here is forgetting how devious 343 Guilty Spark is. In Halo: CE, he tried to deceive the Chief into lighting the Rings, which is how the Covenant want to initiate the Great Journey. He may have deliberately allowed humans onto Halo because only they could truly "turn the key", and also allowed the overwhelming Covenant to land as well, hoping that the theocratic alien collective would force captured humans into firing the Halo Array.
That was not Spark's motivation or intention in the slightest bit...
Are you saying that Spark DIDN'T try to trick the Chief into firing the ring?
Yes.
You realize that Spark was only following protocol yes? That he had no intention of activating the ring because he was in cahoots with the Covenant on their holy quest yes? That he genuinely had no idea the Chief didn't realize what Halo did yes?
With those questions in your mind, I am telling you directly that 343 Guilty Spark did not try to intentionally trick the Chief into activating Halo at all. Do you know why Spark wanted to activate the ring? Because the Flood broke out and were spreading that's why.
