If POTUS, VPOTUS, and SOTH all died and the PPT became president, not acting president.

When the House elects a new SOTH, given that the Senate has not selected the new Vice President, than SOTH becomes the acting Vice President not the President.

So, if the President, Vice President, and the Speaker of the House die and the Senate PPT becomes President, who is the acting Vice President?

If the House elects a new Speaker (assuming the Senate has not confirmed a new Vice President), is he not the acting Vice President by nature of being the first in-line?
