There is one setting that's disturbing. Under Calls/Outgoing Calls, other people have a slider (saw a screen shot somewhere) and I don't. That's what it looks like:

Outgoing calls
You can use Google Voice on the web to place calls on your phone instead of over the internet. Carrier rates may apply. Learn more
If your number ported across successfully then there should be no issue with it. I don't have Hangouts, but is there a setting in there that is causing it not to work with GV? I also have no slider in my calls list if that is what you are referring to.
