A pull request has been made to gz_ros2_control which is how this repository was tested in simulation.
113+
The pull request won't be merged as the fix should be done upstream in gz-sim.
114+
Once a fix is available ros2_robotiq_gripper will be re-released and an update should fix any workarounds.

In the meantime if you need simulation checkout the upstream pull request link:
