You should be able to suppress the Win7 PIV minidriver and use the AC middleware.  This *should* work just by installing AC, but it may be that it depends which modifies the registry hive last, and you might find yourself in a position where WSUS has stomped over AC and the PIV minidriver takes over.  I'd have to ask one of the AF PKI SPO's integration engineers to be certain what's safe; I know they've addressed this situation in the recent past.
