Adding HDAUDIO device bus support to WinPE 2.x

Hi all,

How would I go about configuring WinPE 2.x to recognise devices on the
HDAUDIO\ bus? At the moment I've scripted a batch with a WMI query
which converts the SUBSYS substring in the PCI\* deviceID and then
searches for that string in a list of driver .INF files - which works
for sound devices on the HDAUDIO bus, but not Modem devices. WinPE
enumerating HDAUDIO\ devices (like XP+KB888111 or XP SP3/Vista) would
be ideal.

Is this a known issue? Has it been brought up before? Will it be
addressed in later editions of WinPE?

Cheers all,
DMcG
 
Never mind, found the problem: WMIC doesn't list the the HDAUDIO\*
class (at all? By default? I don't know yet.)
Workaround: use the devcon utility. The scan command I'm using now is:

devconi386.exe findall HDAUDIO*

Works a charm.
