To solve this bug requires knowledge of how the hda chip in these notebooks is connected. From what I've been told, it is possible to find out this information by looking at the .inf files for the audio drivers for Windows. Are you able to possibly obtain this file and put it up somewhere? This bug may not be the best place, but if you have nowhere else, you can always zip it I suppose.
If you are not sure where to find the .inf file, you could have alook on your OS X CD, for bootcamp related executable files. I think these files can be extracted, and the necessary files obtained that way.
