Hello! I recently just factory reset my quest, when trying to connect it to a new account I am getting the "this headset is already connected to a meta account" screen / error in the app. I have tried factory resetting the device again and using pin mode, but no luck. The device is not showing up on my old account anymore so I know that the device is not linked to the old account. Is there any fix / workaround to this?

Another user here. Im guessing your inside the mobile app and viewing the 'devices' tab. If you havent done so already, log directly into auth.meta.com on a laptop or pc. You should still see your Quest in the "My devices" and "Shared with me" line. If you see this, there would be an option to "remove the device" from your account.
I know all this because im having the same issue with the mobile app not showing consistent information as the online account login information. Somehow the mobile app unpaired my Wifes device after i added myself as a second account.
