| Actually the DLL is called csnd6.dll. Not sure if there is a csnd6.lib, but you would need that to link to it.
Maybe someone with a windows machine can make you a csnd6.lib from the DLL, if there is not one.
Steps for this are (command-line):
1. Export the symbols
> dumpbin /EXPORTS csnd6.dll > csnd6.exports
2. Create a DEF file with a line at the top
EXPORTS
followed by the contents of csnd6.exports
2. Create a lib file (for this you need to have the VC\/bin directory in your PATH
> lib /def:csnd6.def /machine:x64 /out:csnd6.lib
