that measn the driver is working on 32 bit...![]()
Yes, and the driver is working in 64 bit on non EFI mode. And maybe working in 64 bit on Windows 7 in EFI mode. To get Windows 8 EFI 64 bit audio working we are waiting on a driver update or EFI firmware update or someone really clever to catch something we missed.

... How does one install in BIOS mode? I installed Windows in bootcamp via a USB stick. Do I have to boot from a cd and install from there? Will this destroy my Mac partition?
Bummer that the mini has the same issue, although it should get fixed. USB install shouldn't matter, although the overall disk partitioning system might. You shouldn't have to reinstall MacOS. Maybe this can help...

you are right, to install from bios mode you need to install from a CD. From my experiences you can only install efi mode from usb.
I erased my efi install, installed via cd(using the same .iso i created the usb with) and now everything works.
As long as you partition your harddrive via bootcamp in osx prior to installation you mac partition wont be touched and you can still dual boot without issues
bumping this to see if there is a fix yet. I spent forever getting Windows 8 set up via EFI on an external SSD on my rMBP only to find that there's no audio.
How long can it possibly take for Apple to release a EFI update for this.. They weren't this late with their BootCamp update for Windows 7, was they?
What worked for me was:
Uninstall ALL bootcamp drivers
Reboot
Go to the Bootcamp location and find the Intel Graphics drivers
Install ONLY the Intel Graphics drivers (this installs the Intel audio too)
Reboot
Check Audio is working
Install as per normal the Bootcamp
This worked for both 7 & 8 using a Mac mini 2011 (Sandy bridge, HD3000).
...My solution was to download the latest drivers for Intel HD 3000 graphics driver...
Did you guys try the new EFI update that apple released a couple of days ago?

A couple of people said that their Windows 8 EFI native boot installs now work with audio.
Can anyone else confirm? Does gfx acceleration for Intel drivers still have a problem?
