Quick fix for your mobile device not working in Surface 8.1 preview ( mine Lumia 520) just go to settings>change pc settings>update & recovery>recovery>refresh. Just wait until it finishes and plug in your device and voil?.
Tried and tested on Lumia 520

Not my hard work as found this on MS forums - thanks AlphaPapa 

I did a complete reinstall of Windows over the weekend (unrelated issue) and now my SRT recognizes my 920 again. I didn't realize how annoying it was not having this feature until it was gone, lol.
