How do you pronounce that?
You don't. It's unpronounceable, not oral, only written.
It is pronounced as "mix."

I don’t intend for this to come out as jerky, but how many non-binary adults are there who are in positions (such as teaching) that require honorifics? It seems like most of them non-binaries I know//hear about are teens. I don’t hear of too many adult non-binaries.
I know some non-binary adults (30s-40s) and we use honorifics with all adults with our kid. We ask and usually use Mx as that's the most common preference.

There are several at my kid’s school.
