The formula for diffraction is  dsinθ=λ, where d is the width of the slit and λ is the wave length. Light does not diffract from slits greater than its frequency. As light has a frequency much higher than of sound, it diffracts  much less than sound. Hope it satisfies you. For more info click here.
