That could also be because of the noise cancelling, where the microphones are "hearing" the ultrasonic frequencies and the headphones are trying to cancel them out.

This is most likely exactly the problem. It's very unlikely that an ultrasonic cleaner operating at a few kHz will cause interference on Bluetooth.
And even if it did - Bluetooth is digital. At worst the music would just stop playing, and at best it would skip - there would be no static.
Also interference on a digital Bluetooth signal would likely not cause incorrect sound to be played, rather just a pause, stutter, or connection loss.
