It's because people hear gunshots, call the cops, and the last thing you need is a trigger happy cop with his gun drawn in the wilderness at night looking for an excuse to shoot because he doesn't know what is going on.

They would then sit on the speaker to muffle the ding when a dog got on the bait. the ding would wake the guy up and let him know it was time to kick on his light. Happy Hunting
