Some of Iroh's lines late in season 2 are also Baldwin and almost nobody noticed it then. He definitely sounds different, but he's the absolute best match for Mako's distinctive voice anyone could hope for.
Well then clearly I went too far with "anyone" :P but I still think the majority of people didn't notice.
In the podcast, Dante Basco (voice of Zuko) recounts that they* started crying when Greg started doing Iroh because it sounded like Mako came back to life. To be fair, there's clearly some exaggeration there for dramatic effect, but I have to say Greg really is spot-on with Iroh.
I will give you that his very first line or two in the show are a little bit off. But not enough to tip me off if I wasn't looking for it.
* he said "we", IIRC, but I don't know who besides him - probably the recording techs.
