Looked into this. The problem is that the Autobuilder is running Ubuntu 18.04, where libfluidsynth2 doesn't exist. Doomsday itself is already working fine with FluidSynth version 2.
I'm inclined to discontinue Ubuntu packages built directly by the Autobuilder, and instead we could rely on Launchpad since that supports multiple different versions of Ubuntu.

You mean http://dengine.net/linux ?
There is already a link to Launchpad under the Ubuntu section. I'm not sure how you are suggesting to update the page?

Ah I see. I suppose for now those should be labeled as "Ubuntu 18.04 – 19.10", or whichever release still had libfluidsynth1.

Resolved by removing the dependency on the external FluidSynth and compiling the library from source instead, i.e., the autobuilder now uses the DENG_FLUIDSYNTH_EMBEDDED build option.
