So the M is just completely silent? Is that common in Irish?

The Letter H after the M is why it's pronounced as above. Lots of Irish words will still have the M sound as normal when it's by itself.

Also, "mh" can have a "V" pronunciation depending on the word and what dialect of irish you're speaking .
