The question is whether a runtime error is the best option.  A runtime
error won't be caught by build tests but only when actually running by
a user.

Well, there are several ways, obviously (e.g. give the preprocessor
error if CONFIG_SND_SOC_COMPRESS is enabled).  But I'm not sure what
is the best to fit, too.  It's rather a matter of taste.
