Does Spotify have a way to see if your computer is recording with your DAC's stereo mix? And if so, is there a way around it?

I don't know how they'd know unless they could read your computer's process list or something like that... And even then, how would they know if a process is recording or just receiving audio?

They could add an imperceptible audio watermark

Just lossy compress it slightly. Completely gone.

Record with two devices, compare and strip everything away that they do not have in common

Particularly stuff outside of the human hearing range, if i'm not mistaken thats how Dolby Pro Logic & PLII surround worked

Depends on the watermark tech used, for example Cinavia is resilient to compression.
