why does my systemd-services not work?

independent of the use of Type=simple,fork or oneshot systemd
always kills my services, the process is fired up and "status"
says "deactivating (stop-sigterm)" reuslting in the process is
killed after a short time

if i start the "/usr/bin/mpd" manually as root it starts, drop
permissions (switch to user mpd) and runs in background forever

the same happens with everything i try to migrate from sysv
to systemd except two perl-services :-(
