Why does sound happen?
Sound only happens when there is a collision with another object or a vibration from another object, because that is what a sound is. It can only be soft, loud, strong, weak, light, pitched etc. because it was moved by other existing objects. So sound happens when objects collide or become vibrated.

Sonar is sound waves bounced off a object so if you are going the speed of sound the waves cannot bounce off the object and determine the speed of the object

Could you test the sound of light hitting an object?
light waves have no mass so when it strikes an object it causes no vibration and therefore no sound
