IIRC I think you missunderstand the 'portname/p' parameter. According to the 
manpage (yeah, those f* manuals ...)
that parameter ist for the alsa_sequencer backend to name the _fluidsynth_ 
input port.
You want to start fluidsynth and then use aconnect to connect your Keystation 
to fluidsynth.
Frankly, I your case I'd either use a GUI frontend for fluid (QSynth) or use 
Cadence do graphically patch your
Midi hardware and apps.

 Just my 0.02 $
