I'd be much more inclined to render a waveform and do a graphical comparison.

But maybe because I'm much more familiar with graphical comparisons.

I gather you are not checking for identical waveform matches, but still, you could use waveform comparison to compare syllable intensity (pitch) and spacing (timing) simply by comparing the heights and relative offset of the various peaks and troughs.

I have a customer asking me to create a program that compares two audio files and discovers what is different about them. The application is to identify mispronounced words. I know that in comparing digital audio files one pop or click can render them different in the computer's mind but I'm
looking to create a threshold algorithm to warn of pitch and timing
differences in the files.  Has anyone tried this?
