First let's single out the problem: Is it about iCal export or agenda
display?  I've tried the example and both entries show up in the
agenda (M-x org-agenda RET a).

For the iCal export I get:

,----
| BEGIN:VCALENDAR
| VERSION:2.0
| X-WR-CALNAME:OrgMode
| PRODID:-//David Maus//Emacs with Org-mode//EN
| X-WR-TIMEZONE:CEST
| CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
| BEGIN:VEVENT
| UID: TS-b9d39029-8b23-49a4-81ea-968da38c60ad
| DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20100322
| DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20100323
| SUMMARY:PLAN 						 :PLAN:DAILY:
| DESCRIPTION: ** quick morning stuff
| CATEGORIES:PLAN,DAILY,test
| END:VEVENT
| END:VCALENDAR
`----

So indeed: The scheduled subheadline doesn't get an entry but is used
as description of the PLAN headline.

Did you customize the iCal export properly (M-x customize-group RET
org-export-icalendar RET)?

If not this behavior is actually okay.  There is this variable with
the default setting:

,----
| Hide Org Icalendar Use Scheduled:
| [ SCHEDULED timestamps in non-TODO entries become events
| [ ] SCHEDULED timestamps in TODO entries become events
| [X] SCHEDULED in TODO entries become start date
|    State: STANDARD.
|    Contexts where iCalendar export should use a scheduling time stamp. More
`----

So SCHEDULED entries are only exported when they have a TODO keyword.
