Hi,

Subscribing sends a message to the publisher. I believe you're hitting the 
default high water mark, and subscription messages are getting dropped.

If I'm expecting lots of subscriptions, my rule of thumb is to set SNDHWM=0 on 
the SUB socket and RCVHWM=0 on the PUB socket. This way the application will 
sooner die than lose a subscription message.
