It could be a deflection stress crack or a lateral stress crack..

It sounds like poor prep work, but more info as Jay has requested will help us provide constructive advice.

The dreaded ply strikes again, deflection again by the looks.

[doug boardley]

could be joist deflection (bounce) or expansion of your ply sheets if they've been hard butted up to each other instead of leaving a couple of mm "breathing space"

 

[jay]

could be a floating floor
