Real silk when dyed is also stiff. I snap it back into the pliable spinnable silk. I'm assuming the soy silk may have the same problem. Try taking a short length of it and, holding with both hands on each end, give it a couple of snaps and see if that doesn't soften it some.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? Has something been removed

to remedy this? I had intended to knit a beaded scarf out of the yarn, but I
can't imagine putting something this scratchy around my neck!
