Correct me if I'm wrong, but:

Listening for a "ping" is a passive operation. Simply listening
involves no emissions of any kind from the submarine. Still, given the
published 2 KM range of the black box's pinger, the chances of a
submarine blundering close enough to detect it are small given the vast
search area.
