I have never heard of a convoy stopping because of a sub contact, you are just asking to get yourself sunk if you do.
Also, this was in the middle of the East China Sea, no where close to a port.

Hrm very curious. I can see it now... "Everyone stop ! Lets see if we cant hear the bastard !"
The one DD stopping (listening) while the other prosecutes is a classic tactic.
