I've always said it salm, with a silent P, but I hear a lot of people say palm.

Is there a reason for this? Is palm an acceptable pronunciation or do these people just not know better?

It could just be because they were using a completely different word. Are you sure you weren't hearing people say 'palm' in the context of 'palm Sunday' or something similar?
