I never soak short grain rice (aka sticky rice). It comes out just fine.
You do have to be careful of how much water you use though.

I use 1 cup rice: 1 and quarter cups of water. I combine them in a pot,
bring to a boil, lower to very slow simmer, cover and let it go for 20
minutes or so. I turn off the heat and let it sit for a bit before peeking.
