Cannot record audio in Boot Camp Windows partition on MacBook Pro 18

I've been trying to record stuff using OBS and FRAPS on my windows portion of my MacBook Pro 2018, but all recording software has had the issue of not being able to capture audio. The closest I would get is by connecting Airpods, the audio will record but the sound will glitch both in the Airpods and in the recording. A solution to either problem will be much appreciated!

MacBook Pro 13”, macOS 10.13

There are Secure Boot related issues with Windows. One example is https://www.techtimes.com/articles/173282/20160811/microsoft-accidentally-leaks-golden-keys-that-unlock-secure-boot-protected-windows-devices-oops.htm . Apple refuses to honor this compromised set of certificates and hence disallows access to the T2, which has significant consequences for drivers.


Also, see page 13 of https://www.apple.com/mac/docs/Apple_T2_Security_Chip_Overview.pdf .


There is no easy fix for this issue and all it's consequences. Remember the controversy related to AACS Keys being compromised.
