I still don't understand :-(
Forgive me if I'm being VERY thick here!
The audio file doesn't seem to match what is being taught in the book. What
I'm asking is if the audio is a mistake or if it is supposed to be that way.

It seems to me we've been round and round on this matter of pronunciation
and the only point of general agreement is that whatever pronunciation one
prefers, one should use it as consistently as possible. By that logic, make
your choice and use that choice consistently--whichever one you choose.
