Under Vista the driver can be installed, it appears in 'hardware manager', but 
it cannot be seen by other
applications, as it doesn't appear in 'control panel' -> 'sound' either. If to 
change the driver file
name to itself in the msvad.inf, it will work OK.

AlsoInstall=ks.registration(ks.inf),wdmaudio.registration(wdmaudio.inf)
CopyFiles=SampleSK_Simple.CopyList
AddReg=SampleSK_Simple.AddReg

This is not the cause of your problem, but the "AlsoInstall" directive was only supported in Windows 98. You need to replace that with:
   Include = ks.inf, wdmaudio.inf
   Needs = ks.registration, wdmaudio.registration
