I feel like they do have some kind of mental link because the conversation in Volume 1 Episode 1 seems like it has a completely different feel to the one at the end of Volume 3. Ozpin seems super calm when he says "But perhaps victory is in the simpler things that you've long forgotten. Things that require a smaller, more honest soul." I feel like it wouldn't really make sense for him to be so calm if he'd just been captured by Cinder/Salem and Beacon had just fallen.

Unless Ozpin and Salem met up for the Volume 1 conversation, I think the only way it makes sense is if they're talking through some kind of psychic connection.
