It is silent
I don't know that this holds true for all words with "pn" in the middle, but for "orthopnea," the primary accent is on the first syllable. It also holds true for the words "apnea," and "dyspnea."

Words that often end in "-ing" are known as verbals or gerunds. They are sometimes found in a phrase (gerund phrase). Gerunds are verbs changed into a noun. They can act as the subject, OP (object of the preposition), appositive, DO (direct object), PN (predicate noun), and sometimes can be the IO (indirect object).
A direct object follows a linking verb; for example: Maryis my sister.A direct object, an indirect object, or no object may follow an action verb; for example:Direct object: Mary skipped school.Indirect object: Mary skipped up the walk.No object: Mary skipped and John ran.
