Sorry for my glaring ignorance, but I'm just getting started with sound.

I had an idea about a simple way to fake lip sync. Basically I have a character sprite with a second sprite for a mouth. I play a mono sound sample, which will be comprised of short spoken phrases. I would like to move the mouth up or down based on the sound sample.

It looks like with AVAudioPlayer I could access peakPowerForChannel or averagePowerForChannel.

Am I way off base here? Is this worth pursuing? Can I still use CocosDenshion and access lower level methods of the AVAudioPlayer object?

With CocosDenshion you are expected to access the methods of AVAudioPlayer, that is why many of the methods are not duplicated. However, if you want to do this you should either use CDAudioManager or you'll need to hack SimpleAudioEngine to get access to the background music AVAudioPlayer. There is also nothing stopping you just managing your own instance of an AVAudioPlayer and still using CocosDenshion for other sounds.

Thanks for the information, now that I know it's possible I'll get to work.

Also, thanks for a great contribution to Cocos2d.
