$ apt-cache search libsndfile
libsndfile1 - Library for reading/writing audio files
libsndfile1-dev - Library for reading/writing audio files
mffm-libsndfilew-dev - wrapper for the libsndfile audio file...
moc - ncurses based console audio player
sndfile-programs - Sample programs that use libsndfile

Looks like you need to install libsndfile1-dev.
