Issue: Spotify window must be active to be interactable

[mavvos]

The Spotify window must be active to be interactable by the script.
Active in this post means an open, non minimized, not on the background window.

If trying to interact with a non-active Spotify window, it will either not respond to hotkeys or keep popping up (essentially "becoming active").

Steps to reproduce: Minimize the Spotify window.

Temporary fix: Keep Spotify open and instead of minimizing it, click to other active windows, essentially "burying" Spotify but keeping the window active.

For documenting purposes:

I have searched all of pywinauto's documentation, and not a single function seems capable of keeping the window on the background while still sending keys. The send_keystrokes function is still the best solution (Current implementation); here inferring that pywinauto will probably not be the solution.

Modules apart, Stack Overflow also seems to not have any reliable solutions, at least in the top 40 questions involving silently sending a key to a hidden window. Some make me question if this is even possible at all.
