I put together a WiX 3.0 package, utilizing the DIFx extensions, with the intentions to
install a Windows 7 Sensor (UMDF driver). During installation, DIFXAPP
logged “No matching devices found in INF” and simply threw the driver
into storage. I read I’m to populate my INF with an appropriate
DriverPackageType, but according to MSDN’s enumerated list, nothing fits.

Is UMDF driver installation a supported scenario? If not, what’s the
best practice for using WiX to install such drivers? Disassembling the DIfx extension shows intent to support Co-installer packages, I have yet to try 3.5 beta.

    The WiX toolset just uses the DIFx custom actions provided by the DIFX team. You need to follow up with the DIFX team to understand why it doesn’t like your driver.
