[remote-playback] Chromecast TV not detected

Mathieu-R has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/remote-playback:

== Chromecast TV not detected ==
Hello,

I was trying to use this api on `Chrome M66` to send audio content on a remote device but it does not detect my `Chromecast tv`.
Other API such as Presentation API detect it.

I was wondering it there's a bug or something else.
Maybe an error in my code.

Btw, if I force with `audioElement.remote.prompt()`, it throws me an error that says: `A prompt is already shown` but that's not the case.

Anyway here's the code that track the device availability : 

```js
  // audio is an audio element
  monitorRemoteAvailability (audio) {
    return audio.remote.watchAvailability(available => {
      console.log(available); // false even if my chromecast tv is available
      this.updateChromecastButtonDisplay({available});
    }).catch(_ => {
      // assume remote device is available
      this.updateChromecastButtonDisplay({available: true});
    })
  }
```

Thanks for your help.
