When you use a recent version of WIEN2k you should NOT play with mixing.

Instead, use

more k-points

TEMP or TEMPS in case.in2 (with increasing broadening parameter).

In case your compond is a Holmium oxide (not clear from the formulae ???)
you may also have to use LDA+U in order to get an insulator.
