Besides, the point is that in English as in many other languages, things don't always sound the way they look at first glance.

road -- broad

fillet -- skillet
How do you know that those pairs are pronounced differently? You just have to know.
Given that the word 'sidhe' isn't even English, why would you expect to be able to pronounce it as though it were?
