Do they pay people for use of their voice when they get a cheaper voice actor in who sounds just like them?
No.
But often those people sue and win. Midler v. Ford, for example.
Frankly I'm horrified that it would go that way and wasn't aware there were cases like this with sound alike voice actors unless the voice was misleading stated to be of someone it wasn't.
Yes, the use of the voice was intentionally misleading. That's why it was decided the way it was.
