That said, i think its fixable.
You have phrased it wrong and aren't really speaking to the core problem. It is not the case that sonar "does not work" when you are also using the periscope. Contacts are simply not tracked simultaneously if they are in visual contact. AI will continue to track targets not within sight of the periscope and you can still use the sonar station manually as normal.

If you raise the boat above 55 feet, the AI does not report any contacts, nor can you hear anything using the sonar station yourself, regardless as to whether or not the periscope is raised or lowered.
