I also have a .22 conversion on the 1911. It is also very accurate, but not entirely reliable, yet (300 rounds since new). Great trigger and easy to field strip.
Dad has an old savage pump that is ragged hole accurate as well.

If standard subsonic rounds - CCI SV, Remington SubSonic Hollow Points, CCI SubSonic HPs, most match ammo like SK Std+ - won't cycle, your 10/22 has issues.
If by "subsonic" you mean the special loads from Aguila (60grn SSS or 20grn Colibri or Super Colibri) or CCI (CCI Quiet) or CB loads (long or short, variety of makers) then yes, it won't cycle those. You *could* swap out to a light recoil spring and perhaps a lighter bolt (Volquartsen makes one to convert 10/22 to 22 Short) .... but then standard ammo would beat it up more.
