I sell Mares BC's and have had this come up several times from new students. Each time it has occurred, it has been an issue with the weight pocket not being secured properly... ie.... "clicked" in on the buckle. 3/4 inflation was on 2 of the bc's. Third I believe was part of the material got pinched in the buckle and didn't let it seat properly. Listen for the distinctive CLICK.
Don't get the bright idea to use a little zip tie on the buckle, they are still tough to break if you had too.
If I had to guess, that is what happened to you. Make this one of the "double check" items on your pre-dive routine checklist and you should have any issues down the road.
