RTSP Stream Cannot Be Accessed from KVM Guest using NAT - iptables forwarding

How should iptables on the host be configured to allow rtsp:// traffic from a KVM guest that initiated the connection via a NAT network interface?

It doesn't appear to be a simple mapping. I don't know what port the guest uses when it opens the connection to the rtsp stream. It could be random. For example, the kvm guest may use port 48000 when it tries to connect to a rtsp stream running on port 30110. The next time a connection is established, it could be an entirely different port like 33844. However, traffic coming back from the rtsp port of 30110 doesn't appear to reach 48000 on that guest or whatever random port it uses. Not sure where the traffic is dying.

If I need to allow incoming connections to a specific port, I using use a /etc/libvirt/hooks/qemu bash with something like:

if [ "${1}" = "name" ]; then   # Update the following variables to fit your setup
    GUEST_IP=192.168.12.55
    GUEST_PORT=55555
    HOST_PORT=55555
    if [ "${2}" = "stopped" ] || [ "${2}" = "reconnect" ]; then
        /sbin/iptables -D FORWARD -o virbr0 -d  $GUEST_IP -j ACCEPT
        /sbin/iptables -t nat -D PREROUTING -p tcp --dport $HOST_PORT -j DNAT --to $GUEST_IP:$GUEST_PORT
    fi
    if [ "${2}" = "start" ] || [ "${2}" = "reconnect" ]; then
        /sbin/iptables -I FORWARD -o virbr0 -d  $GUEST_IP -j ACCEPT
        /sbin/iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --dport $HOST_PORT -j DNAT --to $GUEST_IP:$GUEST_PORT
    fi
fi

And that works, but for some reason, I cannot figure out a way to allow a kvm guest to connect and receive data from an rtsp stream over NAT despite traffic supposedly being forwarded by the NAT interface for traffic that originates from the guest.

Anyone know what needs to be done?

Same RTSP url works fine from VLC on my home computer.
