Device HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_1013&DEV_4208&SUBSYS_106B7800&REV_1003\4&2d16e8f1&0&0001 requires further installation


I've a feeling that Macs require a special sound driver so I should probably roll back somehow to the previous one. Is it possible to roll back sound drivers without affecting anything else? I can't see an obvious way to do it in Device Manager.
