i explicitly hear "larmes aux yeux" like larm-au-yeu" instead of " larm-zau-yeu"
but "ils ont" always pronounced as " i-zont"

now what exactly is the deal here? when can one drop the final s on merging into the next word?

There are three types of French liasons: required, optional, and forbidden.
