Mplayer not recognizing sound card when running as a systemd daemon

I've been able to setup a shairport and mplayer for my home Ubuntu machine. It works well if I launch them from command line. Shairport outputs into a fifo file, so its details are not related to the question probably.
And mplayer is launched as:
/bin/bash -c 'while true; do mplayer -rawaudio samplesize=2:channels=1:rate=88200 -demuxer rawaudio /home/kb/workspace/shairport/music; sleep 1; done'
Now, I wanted to put their commands into the systemd services so that I don't need to launch them manually every time I boot. Worked well for shairport. For mplayer I've made this service:
➜ ~ cat /etc/systemd/system/mplayer-shairport.service
[Unit]
Description=Mplayer-Shairport
[Service]
ExecStart=/bin/bash -c 'while true; do mplayer -rawaudio samplesize=2:channels=1:rate=88200 -demuxer rawaudio /home/kb/workspace/shairport/music; sleep 1; done'
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
What I get as a result is that when I launch mplayer from the command-line, it outputs the sound via my USB card into speakers. But when I launch it from the systemd service, it outputs into the built-in PC speaker. What is the reason behind this auto-detection failure?
Additional Info
