In this study, we report on the observation of de Haas-van Alphen-type quantum oscillations (QO) in the ultrasound velocity of NbP as well as `giant QO' in the ultrasound attenuation in pulsed magnetic fields. The difference of the QO amplitude for different acoustic modes reveals a strong anisotropy of the effective deformation potential, which we estimate to be as high as $9\,\mathrm{eV}$ for certain parts of the Fermi surface. Furthermore, the natural filtering of QO frequencies and the tracing of the individual Landau levels to the quantum limit allows for a more detailed investigation of the Fermi surface of NbP as was previously achieved by means of analyzing QO observed in magnetization or electrical resistivity.
