When you run develop.py does its output include the line "-- Building  
with FMOD audio support"? If not it hasn't found libfmod, and won't  
build the wrapper. There's a slight gotcha in that Cmake caches its  
settings in the file CMakeCache.txt in the build directory, so if you  
forget to add the lib before running develop.py and add it afterwards  
it won't necessarily get picked up the next time.

Have a look in CMakeCache.txt for ...

//Use closed source FMOD sound library.
FMOD:BOOL=ON

... and make sure it says on (or run "cmake-gui ." from the build  
directory and set it through there).
