Hans Stuart (aka Johannes Stuart) is presently identified as the son of Andrew Stewart, second Lord Ochiltree, by a wife named Janet Forbes. However, no such wife, and no such son is known, and the proposition is not supported by the evidence cited in the profile overview.
Moreover, it is not supported by the Scots Peerage account of the family, or by Stirnet's review of the published accounts.

How should this problem be resolved?

I suggest you translate and read Ulf H Larsson's solid investigation into the parentage of Hans/John and Anders/Andrew Stuart. He has come to the conclusion, that the early individuals in the Stuart genealogical tableau are not historical individuals, thus invented by Hans/Johannes, or John in English, to conceal the fact that he, and his brother Anders, or Andrew, was born illegitimate.

The Swedish Stuart genealogy, which can be found in the Riddarhuskalendern (and on Adelsvapen.com), rests solely upon Hans' information, which had been passed down orally to his son, David.

According to Ulf H. Larsson's, the most likely parents are Andrew Stuart 2nd Lord Ochiltree and Janet Forbes.

Again, I suggest you translate and read the entire article.
