Windows Media on optional port

We have a Watchguard 1000 running v6.1sp1. There is a Windows web server running on the optional port. When users use the website internally our DNS servers transalte the IP to the correct internal IP address. But when they select the page that has Windows Media files, the media files will not appear. The log shows them being requested from the public IP instead of the private.

Any ideas why?
 
Are the source and destination entries in the log correct? Something sounds a little odd.
 
The source is correct but destination is wrong. It's the public instead of the private. The log never shows the data being returned.
 
Actually everypage comes from the internal IP correctly. Even the page that has the links to the Windows Media files. It's only when you click on those links that the IP changes to the public IP. (The media files are located on the same server as the rest of the website. But they do have a different public IP to access them). Now that I think about it, maybe they also have a different interal IP as well. If they do I'll give you an update. Thanks for your help.
