Wheel disconnects mid session and no FFB to start

Moza R21 user here. I can definitely say I've been experiencing a similar no FFB effect you've mentioned but my fix is slightly different. I haven't had the no input issue though, but the issue I've come across and how to fix it:

If on track and there's no force feedback at the start, I can hit the pause button and wait a few seconds, once I've unpaused I'll get immediate force feedback again. Moza Pit House is up to date and has compatibility with F1 24.

It's quite frustrating having to take the first few corners to realise FFB isn't functioning to then pause and unpause losing a few seconds having the AI take over
