I'm thinking people are looking at the "my" in the phonemics guide and assuming that it's pronounced like the modern "my". However, everything I've seen so far points to that not being the case. Only have reddit as a source, but the subjecto of that particular dictionary came up, with this particular post:

''The beginning of the Dictionary quoted explains the accent markings. Taking those into account, the book actually tells you to pronounce it "Ad-mee-ral".''

(The "y" being the "y" in "lovely".)
