I need your help to settle this perpetual disagreement in my home. I'm team 'skon' whereas my husband is team 'skone.'

Some context, we are not native to the UK so I will humbly accept consensus.

For me, I pronounce it as cone with an s at the start. Whereas my parents pronounce it as con with an s at the start.

Scone makes more sense then scon, purely by spelling, if it was scon then it would be spelt "scon".
