Are you getting a message that there's no audio device present, or what? A lack of a driver will give you a yellow exclamation point in Windows' Device Manager, while NO DEVICE PRESENT means something else. I'm assuming you have great audio under OS X...

Audio under X is fine. No device driver is installed therefore Windows doesn't register the audio hardware and the audio won't function as not device is available.

With that sort of message, it looks to me like you're basically choosing the wrong driver. Are you absolutely certain you're navigating to the correct folder and choosing the correct driver?

I'd try to install the Boot Camp 1.2 drivers now that they're out. This should fix almost any "can't find the right software" driver issue.
