Well,the short answer: you happen to be right.

The long answer: as I tried to rebuild libsndfile with FLAC enabled, it
didn't build out of the box with the latest flac-1.2.1, so I was right
not building it with FLAC :-).

It's a problem in libsndfile, and it is fixed in the latest prerelease
versions of libsndfile according to Erik.

Luckily, I managed to find a patch for the last released libsndfile-1.0.17:

http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/flac

and now I do have FLAC support in ecasound.

It would be nice to have the list of to be supported through libsndfile
audio file in ecasound 'confugure' summary.

Thanks for giving the right directions,
  Sergei.
