Microsoft Digital Sound System 80 speakers are working but Unspecified - Windows 7

My Microsoft Digital Sound System 80 speakers work fine but under Devices and Printers it shows up under Unspecified.

I have upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium, clean install.

Being a Microsoft product I was hoping it would be installed correctly with little Microsoft Digital Sound System 80 speakers showing up under Devices but instead it shows up under Unspecified with some generic unknown looking box or device.

Anything I can do to get the little speakers to show up and not the generic device?
