It all depends on what kind of ship / group of ships...
If it is a convoy with escorts..of course they are listening, in fact pinging the range to a DD when he is close (3k yards more or less) is like rasing a flag saying "You hoo this way... here I am."
They can also hear and react to depth pings. Range I dont know ask someone else.
But basically keep the range to target in mind when using active devices.
