Change Youtube account used to play music on Google Home

I went into the Google Assistant on my Android phone and selected Youtube Music, but that's all I can do, it doesn't ask me my account details.  My Youtube account and my Google account on my phone/speaker are not the same.  How do I tell it which account to use?

Hi SunnyRio,

A YouTube music account will automatically be added to the same Google account as the one used to login to the Google Home app.

But I need to link a different Youtube account.  The Youtube account that's the same as my Google Home account is banned from Youtube, due to it being hacked into and the Youtube techs being so stupid they won't take their own word I was hacked before the illegal (how to pirate games) videos were uploaded.  they sent me a text to warn me!  Then they want MY evidence!

Hey SunnyRio,

 

Apologize for the delays. Chiming in to ensure everything is covered here. I appreciate @Cathal_S for helping here. Just to add, you can set up your speakers using your current YouTube Music account then link or invite the other account as a home member. In that way, you can choose "No default music" for the second account and be able to play music without having an issue. Visit this link to know more.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Cheers,

Muddi
