When I add a fairlight effect to a clip (from the EDIT page), it will play back with the effect and Im able to adjust it. However, after moving on in my edit and then later coming back and playing that clip, the effect no longer works. All the settings are the same but Resolve doesnt apply the effect. Even switching to the fairlight page it will not play the effect. What's going on with that?

I can confirm this behavior over here as well.

One way I've found to get the effect of the plugin to come back is to delete it and then instantly undo so it comes back. I find that the plugin is now having an effect once again. But yes, something seriously not right going on there.

Also noticing that the Fairlight FX will sometimes just stop working mid clip. The first part of the clip will have the effect active and then without any reason it will just be off. If I scrub back it's on again, and I go forward and it's off.

It's like there is a keyframe shutting the effect off, but there is no keyframe. Again, deleting the effect and undo-ing to bring it back will fix this temporarily until it comes back again.
