Trouble with Sonos and Apple TV

I am trying to figure out how to allow sonos related traffic go through network without issue. It is choppy since installing the Microtik. How would I open it in the best practice?
Also has anyone had success with airplay and apple tv streaming type traffic?
Thanks,
Tyler

You might wish to set the multicast-helper to full (instead of default (which means disabled) or disabled) in the advanced wireless section of your wlan interface.
This solved the issue at 90% of my clients.

I put that suggestion in place. Sonos seems to not buffer any more. Basically hit play and off it goes.
The video streaming is taking longer to buffer still. If I have a mac do homesharing to the apple tv or an ipad it buffers every few minutes causing the video to pause. What could I do to troubleshoot?
Thx,
Tyler
