@Joy_1P I'm not quite sure. Both of the Google accounts are cached in the browser so if I go to https://myaccount.google.com/, I see both accounts and can choose which one I want to log in with as shown in the screenshot below.
Once I click on one of the accounts, it asks me to confirm my identity with the key, and there's a button to proceed with this and a link for trying with another method as shown below. When choosing the option to try with another method, I get two options; use the key or use my password, of which the latter will then ask me for the TOTP code for regular 2FA.
If I open https://myaccount.google.com/ in a private session, it asks me for my email/username and password and then shows the screen below. For some reason it can't find my passkey, which I think is related to something about cookies being involved in the registration of passkeys, which has been mentioned in other threads.
