Bug Description

In the latest version of Spotify, 9.17.1, title for window is "Spotify Free - Linux Preview".
The "indicator-muteads" expects title to be "Spotify - Linux Preview" thus does not find the window and cannot proceed.
Note that word "free" might be added to title only for accounts without subscription, like mine.

You can find the window with the class spotify.Spotify, and then identify it by window ID.

wmctrl -lx | awk '-F ' '$3 == "spotify.Spotify" {print $1}'

I am running revision 6, but it is not detecting the Spotify window. I am not talking about version 0.9.17, I am talking about version 1.0.9 from the testing channel, announced here: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Announcements/Spotify-Client-1-x-beta-for-Linux-has-been-released/td-p/1147084

1.0.11.131.gf4d47cb is out, that doesn't work with indicator-muteads either.
