iTunes not connecting to Airport Express

Trying to play music through remote speakers. Get an iTunes error message stating remote speakers can't be found. The airport express is set up properly, and worked great for months. Now its not letting me play any music. The express is recognized in the airport utility, and I am pretty sure its set up right. Running through a wireless system on the airport extreme. Any help would be appreciated.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

Temporarily, plug a pair of headphones into the AirPort Express and listen to them to see if you can hear an audio signal. If you can, the AirPort Express is working fine and the problem is most likely in your connecting cable between the Express and your stereo.

If you hear no sound in the headphones, then you may have a problem with the AirPort Express or the connection between your wireless router and the AirPort Express. Position the Express close to the wireless router and use the headphones again to see if you pickup a signal at that location. If you do, then move the Express further away and test again, etc.
