The interference depends more upon the orientation of the two, rather than their proximity. I discovered this on an occasion when the interference was sufficiently distinct that I heard it as a noise. On previous occasions the interference had been indistinct, sounding merely like a sheen in the music.
Since then I have been careful to keep the headphone cable's routing well away from the wifi dongle and its cable.
If it's RFI being induced in the cable then presumably using one or more ferrite beads would help suppress it. Google is your friend.
