Google nest keeps defaulting to another account for some settings

I have google assitant and google nest on this current google account.
I have an old google account linked to an old gmail address I rarely use anymore.
My google assistant and home settings require me to be logged in to the old google account (despite setting everythging up on my current/new account, and downloading both apps from the play store under the current account) - and the default for locations, news, and calendar is the old google account. Even routines keeps defautiung to setting from this old account that I never linked to my home/nest account.
 
I have tried:
- logging out of the old gmail account and removing it entirely from my device, then removing the google home app and restarting my device. I then reloaded the google home app under my current/new account - but it says I don't have permission to access many of my settings without logging in a verifying my old account.
- updating the phone
- restarting the google nest
- deleting the "home" and unlinking my account from the nest and restarting the whole setup again
 
I don't know what to do? Am I forever stuck with only using the old google account?
