We know that Sirius and James communicated via a pair of mirrors, but
we don't know for sure that the mirror in Harry's possession is one of
that pair- presumably James' was in Godric's Hollow or on his person
when he died, which would be difficult for Sirius to obtain. If
Regulus also had a mirror, which he left on his death (or 'death') in
Grimmauld Place Sirius could pair it up with his own- perhaps stored
in his bank vault, or perhaps they were two seperate pairs.

It would, perhaps, explain why Sirius never tried to use it, or didn't
mention it in the fireplace after Christmas, if he knew saying 'James
Potter' didn't work.
