What sample rates are the various files?

You could try to tell speexdec to export in wideband, 
or use a specified sample rate, perhaps 22050 Hz

Maybe you could try changing the wav files to more standard sample/bit rates
using sox after they have been decoded.

There is probably a bug somewhere here.
sox is probably not representative as a player either. It is too sophisticated.
