by adding ' -e', '-es' and 's' will the pronunciation change?

I couldn't tell the difference among 'Je suis allé '(mas) et 'je suis allée'(fem)  ou 'nous sommes allés' et 'nous sommes allées'  from the audio. In everyday speech, is there any change in pronunciation?

This question relates to:French lesson "Agreeing past participle with subject's gender and number with (+ être) verbs in the compound past in French (Le Passé Composé)"
