In all, not really a bug I say, more of the nature of the game setup. You know if you're running on the surface in rough waters, the "submerged" icon is constantly flashing, when we hit that 6-7 mark the hatch closes. You're not alone there!!

Yeah in rough waters it might be problem to get up top quicker than in calm waters. The deck gun wont man either if waters are rough, but there is a mod for it. I don't use it, because realistically it wouldn't be practical to use deck gun in rough weather. Weather plays a lot big factor in how attacks are approached.
There are certain approaches and procedures to surfacing and diving. Download these Documents, if you haven't already:

There is a pdf in there called, The Submarine Commander's Handbook. Its like the sub captains bible. After reading it, maybe it will give you some time to do some checks before you rush up to deck, not to say that's a bad thing.
After reading some of it, I don't tend to rush up to deck as fast as much. There are periscope checks to do, before going up and down the surface, as well as other things. Sometimes I don't feel like doing them and like everyone, I get into the attack. The rush and excitement makes other things not matter, lol.
I multi-task a lot and what helps me do a lot once to speeds up things when in a battle is this:

I never in the past like speech recognition mods because they didn't work right or were limited on certain words that are recognized. This one is really good and I love it. It helps me do many things at once and kills the time in between. Inside the main mod folder is a speech command list. It will give you numerous speech recognition for one command.
Try some of these things out, to get around the bug and maybe it will help your emergence of the game.
