There's a brief description of Klingon sounds using IPA symbols on pages
xxvii-xxviii of the paq'batlh. I don't recall if it was written by
Okrand, though IIRC he at least signed off on it.
That's a very good point we had forgotten in this discussion.
{paq'batlh} is not a primary source and it has some questionable
phrases, but it has been vetted by Okrand. If {o} were not [o] it would
not be as [o] in the IPA list.
He did not sign off on it. I don't think he even read it before
it was published. I recall from its release that it was made very
clear that only the translation, translator's note, and Old
Klingon text are canonical; the introduction is not.
