Well, not being an Icelandic speaker, I'm not sure myself, lol!
I generally say flotsdale, but with a hint of the 'j', so that it is (more or less):

Fliotsdale.

With the emphasis on the 'o'.

I don't know how close that is to the real pronunciation (Icelandic speakers please step forward!), but its how I do it!
