Can't see remotes airtunes unless i turn firewall off....advice please

Since upgrading to AVG AV & firewall v8 I can't see my remotes speakers unless I turn the firewall off. I have already allowed itunes to connect for all through the firewall.
Does anyone have any experience of using airtunes with AVG firewall & can help me overcome this problem?
TIA,
John

AirTunes uses the Remote Audio Access Protocol (RAOP) to stream music to the Airport Express Base Station (AX). RAOP is based on the Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) but with an extra challenge-response based authentication step.
This is a variant of the RTSP, but it seems to be on TCP ports 5000 (control) and 6000 (data) instead of the RFC ports. The iTunes app connects to the RTSP server on 5000, tells it to record an Apple Lossless stream, tells it an RSA key, and then switches to 6000 or 6001 to send the data.
I suggest opening these ports in the AVG firewall to see if this helps.
