Pippin:
I think Snape remained convinced that Sirius was guilty and Dumbledore had made a horrible mistake, right up until the end of GoF. Any conversations prior to that would have been like the conversations in HBP where Harry pressed Dumbledore to do something about Draco and Dumbledore refused to discuss it.  Dumbledore would know that nothing he could say would convince Snape and he wouldn't have tried.

 But Sirius transformed right in front of Snape at the end of GoF, and (in another missing scene) Snape returned to Voldemort that same night and would have encountered Pettigrew  unmistakably alive and in league with Voldemort.
