Macbook pro mid 2012 no audio

I suspect this is because the Cirrus driver I'm trying to install comes is from circa 2015-2016, but the default Microsoft driver is from 2019, but my MacBook Air, for example (same version of Windows), is doing fine with audio. inf files I extracted from the Cirrus installers seemed to work when manually 'updating' the drivers.

I simply get the error that the 'best driver (the default Microsoft one) is already installed.' Neither. I tried manually installing the drivers from the Cirrus folder, but no luck. This is a fresh install (the second time) and my MacOS version is 10.15.7 Catalina. Everything else, such as the camera, seems to work fine (except for an issue where I get a BSOD when updating the graphics drivers through Windows Update, but for now I disabled updates). After installing Windows 10 20H2 on my Mid-2012 15' MacBook Pro, I still can't get the audio (speakers and microphone) working, even after trying to install the version 6.1 and 6.2 support software.
