Can this be fixed in the steam version of the game? I got some mods, but I think I read in a thread addressing this issue that it requires me owning the DVD version, and the Steam version of the game is rather unmoddable.

Or do you think I should buy the DVD version? For that matter, do you think mods will work better if I had the DVD version than the Steam version? Sucks that I blew $20 on this game just to have to rebuy it to make it somewhat playable.

It can't be fixed for the steam version.. hydrophone fix is included in the Generic Patcher by TDW, the main thing that was made for this game, in my opinion..
This app works with the regular .exe only and doesn't work with the steam .exe.. without those patches your game will be still bugged and it doesn't matter how much mods you installed..
You can buy DVD or downloadable version.. there is no difference..
