Subs very rarely used 'active' sonar. Even then it was only to confirm range to target.

As far as the IJN sailing around pinging away perhaps they did but why? Most task forces are hauling butt at flank and couldent get a decent return anyhow.

You can still hear them comming alot further off than you can see them so there is some truth to that.
