I haven't experienced that. Box sectioned aluminum rims are likely to give a nicer ride than deep sectioned CF rims, if ride quality is your major concern.
5lbs change in air pressure is going to make a bigger difference than rim material.
and in my experience right pads, right rims, caliper brakes work well on CF rims.
