Simple. Play with Map Contacts ON. And try not to upgrade your Hydrophone. The initial one can let you hear on the surface. I thought it to be a bug, but if you actually listen through it, you can clearly make out ships (faint, but you can). ATM the game is almost unplayable without Map Contacts. The sonar guy does a decent job, but the Deck Crew are morons. They're better at telling me they've spotted an aircraft while I'm raising my obs scope out of the water than spot a ship 2 km away at which I've already been shooting my gun for 20 minutes.
