Pronunciation of "t" in "C'est à moi"

Why does the pronunciation accompanying this lesson not pronounce the "t" in "C'est à moi"? I have another French language program (and a French speaking daughter) which does pronounce it. Is this possibly a regional difference? Which is correct in formal Parisian French?

Hi Rob,

I have listened to the audio and can't hear the 't' .

However, both would be correct, .The 't' should be sounded but you will hear both. Children are less likely to want to be formal.

Hope this helps!
