Suppressors produce back-pressure
So imagine this...

...with the added back pressure of a suppressor. It's not going to be very efficient and reducing the sound of the shot.
That's not to say that a suppressor on a revolver wont reduce the decibel level, it's just not going to be a large amount. And it's not going to be close to the reduction you get with a gas seal revolver.
