I chase after it and find nothing. Then when I ask where the sound contact is I'm told there isn't one just for it to magically reappear a few minutes later someplace else entirely.

The early war hydrophones have dead zones directly ahead and astern of your boat. So if you change your course to head straight at your target your sound man will lose it. Oddly enough if you man the hydrophone station yourself (pressing H) you can still pick them up.
But as frau kaleun says you need to try to work an intercept course to where they will be rather than head straight to where they are now.
