USB3 will often cause Bluetooth interference. Sometimes moving the USB device just a few inches will clear it up.
ohhhh, so the interference is coming from the USB device and not the MacMini itself?

More likely it’s the cable that causes the interference. Moving the cable or using a cable with better EMI shielding can reduce or eliminate the interference.
