Thanks, now systemd service is starting correctly, but something is
wrong with fluidsynth command because I cannot hear any sound. Maybe
some ALSA/Pulseaudio conflict?
As you can see here:

# systemctl status -l fluidsynth.service
● fluidsynth.service - FluidSynth Daemon
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/fluidsynth.service; disabled)
   Active: active (running) since sab 2014-10-04 10:38:02 CEST; 2s ago
 Main PID: 7768 (fluidsynth)
   CGroup: /system.slice/fluidsynth.service
           └─7768 /usr/bin/fluidsynth -is -a alsa -m alsa_seq -r
48000 -z 1024 -c 8 -p 7345

the command is:
fluidsynth -is -a alsa -m alsa_seq -r 48000 -z 1024 -c 8 -p 7345

I'm using PulseAudio but I've added these lines to ~/.asoundrc:

pcm.!default {
    type pulse
}

ctl.!default {
    type pulse
}

I want to specify fluidsynth port so I don't have to select it each
time I start an application (Frescobaldi).
