Where did you find it documented that "sub" was an argument that would  
be interpreted as a subtitle for either xYplot or xyplot? (You may be  
unaware that there are separate graphics systems in R and that  
arguments for base graphics will not be recognized by Lattice graphics.

Read the help pages? The method I use to get a second line under my  
"main title" is to use "\n" to force a line break. If you want the  
sort of subtitle that one gets in base graphics you will need to be  
more clear.

Please stop sending HTML formatted material. It takes extra time to  
edit out the wasted space.
