It's fine to use 15 amp switchs on a 20 amp circuit, no problem. It's also fine to use 15 amp receptacles on a 20 amp circuit. Just make sure you don't connect any of the wires to the little holes in the backs of switchs or receptacles, these holes are notorious for loose connections. Always wrap the wire around the screws on the sides of the devices.
