It is likely that you don't store your soundfonts in the root of your home directory. If you are using Fluida.lv2 frequently then navigating to your soundfont directory every time you create a new instance of Fluida.lv2 can become tedious in which case you should add your soundfonts dir(s) your ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file by adding a line such as:
XDG_SF2_DIR="/usr/share/sounds/sf2"
Replace SF2 with a label of your choice for paths you add. You will then be able to access the defined path(s) with a single click from the Places panel of Fluida's File Selector window.
