After going in 1-0 up at the break, courtesy of Traore's opener, it was expected that the second half would be one-way traffic due to Mings' first-half dismissal.
However, the hosts came out the stronger of the two in the next 45, as goals from Hause and El Ghazi extended the Villans' lead to 3-0.
Smith's men climb up to sixth and still have a game in hand on most of those around them.
After a fourth consecutive clean sheet, next up for the Villans is the difficult challenge of a trip to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea. For Hodgson's side, who disappointed in this game, they sit in 13th and will host Leicester City next.
