Shortcodes in RSS excerpts

Question

I am developing a plugin that uses shortcodes. I wanted to enable users to use shortcodes in excerpts, so I added the line

add_filter('the_excerpt', 'do_shortcode');

which worked fine.However, in my RSS feed, the excerpt is still a shortcode. I tried all of the following:

add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'do_shortcode');
add_filter('the_excerpt_rss', 'do_shortcode');
add_filter('the_content_rss', 'do_shortcode');

But it does not work still. Can someone point me to the right filter so the excerpt would be processed correctly in the feed as well?

Please note that those are manually edited excerpts, not automatically generated ones.

I tested following code and it worked just fine for me:

function my_name_shortcode( $atts ) {
    return "<h3>PRASAD</h3>";
}
add_shortcode( 'name', 'my_name_shortcode' );

add_filter( "the_excerpt_rss", "do_shortcode" );

The result can be seen in below screenshot.
