Audio In Driver Missing in Windows 7 Boot Camp with MacBook Air 2011 Model?

[timidhermit]

I am running Windows 7 64-bit in a MacBook Air (2011 Model) with Boot Camp.

I can't get Skype to work because there is no "microphone" / audio-in detected.

The microphone appears to be only working for a few but not all apps requiring audio-in.

I saw a few old threads complaining about a similar problem, and it appeared to be related to poor or missing driver for Cirrus Logic.

Does anyone know if there is a fix for this for the MacBook Air 2011?

After installing win 7 did you install in the windows drivers that apple provides ( typically on a usb drive that you have to create )?

Skype working fine for me in win 7 64 bit 2011 mba ... works in bootcamp directly and also under parallels.

Yep, installed all the Boot Camp drivers.

This is odd. For example, Adobe Audition also fails to see the microphone at first. However, if you explicitly enable some settings with the application, the microphone will work.

For Skype, it just does not see any microphone at all. Help?
