I think raw leather is too 'grippy' for constant wear against wool or pv.

The other issue may be the edge of your strap, if not burnished and rounded, the square-cut edge may be dragging across your fabric too much and causing the issue.

The chair... cannot help you there.
Yep, while the inside of the belt and sporran strap are not seen a nice belt will address it. I Edge bevel, slick and coat everything and the inside is finished as well.
