Try the Vista Beta drivers from Realtek:

http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...&Software=True

They provide basic sound functions.

I am actually using the Realtek newest drivers for WindowsXP x64 on my
n4force motherboard.
This was the first package that allowed me to set surround options...

I have an ASUS P5N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard. It has the nForce4 audio on
it.

The first thing I did, when I finally decided I wanted sound on my box, was
to get the beta driver for Vista64 from nVidia's driver pages. They are
beta drivers, so not GREAT, but as of yet I haven't had many problems.
Here's the link:

Actually I posted all the drivers and procedures I've tried and the failed
results. This message board unfortunately ate it and I can't remember what I
posted. Suffice it to say, I have obtained all drivers recommended in this
post and nothing seems to be recognized by my Vista installation. I'm
disappointed that I can't evaluate this OS but for me it seems to be way too
early for it to even install properly on my machine.
Just in case this forum allows this reply to be posted, I want to thank
everyone for there help.
