I believe the intonation is a little different, for me, but the vowel
length and stress seem more prominent. I.e., if I were saying I had
gotten all the answers correct, I would stress both "all" and
"right"; if I was saying I got them satisfactorily, I would not
stress the "all" and I think the vowel would be shorter.

It's my guess that there'll be no consensus about the two of these
being pronounced differently.  The only correlation one may be
able to find is that X percent do pronounce the two differently
somewhat consistently--but how each individual does it may vary
radically.  I suspect that I pronounce both the same at some times,
and differently at others, and that there's little consistency in how
it's done.  That's my impression.
