Various Google Speakers and Displays 'Unlink' from Home App almost daily.

I have 4 Nest Mini's, 2 Nest Hubs - 1st gen, 2 Nest Audio Speakers, and 1 Google Home Speaker. Almost every day, 2 Minis, 1 Hub and 1 Nest Audio Spkr unlink themselves from my Home app. I try to engage and the device responds "please link in the google home app" - or something similar. This has been going on for quite sometime. I've rebooted, factory reset and even changed their locations to another 'working' device. It helps for, usually, one day or so. Then all of a sudden I ask a question and I get the noted response. I look in my home app and all the affected devices are listed at the bottom of the devices page under 'Local Devices'. I have to go into each one and assign it to my home and the room/location I want it to be in. And when it happens, it does it for all 4 seemingly at the same time.

Additionally, it was just for 3 devices. It just started happening recently to the 2nd affected mini. Also early on when this started happening, I noted in the 'Activity' tab of the home app that I (by email name) disconnected the device, and I never did. I am the only one on my account and in my Home network. Recent checks to the Activity tab no longer states that. 

Does anyone have an idea as to where to go from here? Thanks!

I have had the same issues; only 2 of us at home. At times it wants to unlink from Sirius radio. Once I remember where to go to link back up it may stay good for months? My guess is maybe an update?
