ask ~ aks

It is often pointed out in response to claims that MnE ax is just as correct as ask that both acsian and ascian were used in Old English. The implication is that the modern ask pronunciation came from one of the OE words, but I thought that the OE sc was pronounced sh. Is this not the case with ascian?
