Same, it is April 2023 and I have been looking for a solution for weeks because I just got a g923 but I cannot find anything and I have tried many different things.
So of course I am having the same issue as everyone else…
The only way I get force feedback is restarting my PC and only launching f122.. if I tab out of the game to open another app like discord or OBS to stream and then come back to the game I lose all FFB and have to restart my PC to get it back :/
i can only hope in f1 23 which is around a month away from launch at this point that this gets fixed

Furthermore it’s like when an application has to use devices like speakers/headphones and Microphones those are the ones that cause the issue.. so maybe the applications are somehow “Grabbing” the wheel device causing it not to work in f122 which I know makes no sense but that’s what I feels like in my head

Losing focus in Desktop Window Manager is what you're describing.
Running the game in Fullscreen mode (yes, I know about Fullscreen optimisations) and using overlays that work (I can vouch for Steam and Afterburner/RTSS - Discord I have no use for ATM but it mostly worked) and not ALT-TABing gives no loss of focus and therefore no loss of FFB.
Disclaimer is: currently my G923 is not connected - I'm not connecting it as basically I have zero interest in adding to my playtime on F1 22)
