Issue with Power BI Government License

I had originally posted this in the "Service" forum, but I'm beginning to think this is a bug, so I'm posting here.
 
I am having an issue. I was using a free Power BI Pro trial. I signed up for the Power BI Pro for Government license when that expired. I understand that we are supposed to use app.powerbigov.us now. I can log in there, but the PowerBI desktop program on multiple machines and multiple usernames, continues to try to publish to the commercial site. Help please!"
 
Basically what I'm doing is this.  I'm opening PowerBI desktop.  I'm logging in with my account, which has a license of Power BI Government Pro assigned.  It does NOT have a power bi free or power bi pro commercial license assigned any longer.  I am trying to publish a report to the PowerBI service.  But for my account, this should go to app.powerbigov.us, NOT app.powerbi.com.   But, my desktop client is still trying to publish to the .com and not the .US.
 
I ran a fiddler trace that shows my "Endpoint URL" as app.powerbi.com.  I have tried this from multiple PCs, some of which have never had PowerBI installed.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled on my PC as well.  Can someone help?

    Currently, you cannot publish a report to a GOV tenant. You need to import the file from the online service (In Power BI Service, click Get Data - Files). The product team is working on a fix for this.
