Is there a way to use SQL Server 2019 and CDC (Change Data Capture) at the same time?

Question

I am working on a project where I have to use CDC, catalog collation SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and a CS collation for data. I get an collation conflict error from sp_cdc_create_populate_stored_procs when enabling cdc for any table. This is called from other procedure "sys.sp_cdc_enable_table_internal" and again this is call from my own sql-script "sys.sp_cdc_enable_table". To me this seems like a bug but would appreciate if there's any new ideas how to implement production level workaround on this matter.

This is a documented limitation of Contained Databases.

Limitations

Partially contained databases do not allow the following features.

-Partially contained databases cannot use replication, change data capture, or change tracking.

-Numbered procedures

-Schema-bound objects that depend on built-in functions with collation changes

-Binding change resulting from collation changes, including references to objects, columns, symbols, or types.

-Replication, change data capture, and change tracking.

If you need a case-insensitive catalog collation along with a case-sensitive collation for data, you can set the column collation directly on your text columns instead of using the database's default collation.
