No such issue here. You specifically mentioned warships - do armed merchants fire at you?
I've had cause to surface near escorts two or three times, and very quickly acquired an appearance reminiscent of Swiss cheese. My second voyage with 1.3 was cut short by a rather inept encounter with a small or medium gunboat, which I thought I'd be able to handle on the surface. I survived that but couldn't dive anymore; so was less than impressed when his DD buddy showed up to join the fun.
Anyway, the point being, in my experience, all the Japs will shoot at you if given the opportunity. I've also had them shoot at my periscope on occasion.
