Can confirm as of 24w09a.


This is because soul speed (and frost walker) is applicable only in the `EquipmentSlot.FEET` slot, but horse armor is equipped in the `EquipmentSlot.BODY` slot.
Feather falling works only because it's applicable to all armor for some reasonโif you equip a chestplate with feather falling, you'll see it still works.

Thank you for your report!
