HomePod mini reset loop

My homepod mini just says keeps saying "your homepod is about to reset. Keep pressing until you hear 3 beeps." then the beeps come immediately whether I am pressing the top or not.  I hvae factory reset the homepod mini, it's no longer showing in my home app, and I can’t get it to get out of this loop. The light on top will be white for just a second or two after I plug it in, then it will turn red until the "3 beeps" message. The lights will turn off, then it will start the cycle again.

Connect the HomePod mini to a Mac or PC using its USB-C cable. In Finder on a Mac, or Apple Devices on Windows, select the HomePod and choose Restore HomePod. This reinstalls its software rather than repeating the touch reset. If it still loops after the restore, arrange service with Apple.
