What to do next
Ask the buyer to confirm this in writing in the PayPal case. Their written words carry more weight than a transcript.
A driver's word isn't carrier proof. Ask the carrier for its delivery record, then add it to the case.
Calls show what someone said. They don't replace the carrier's delivery record, and they don't change the recommendation. All calls

Delivered to the transaction address

Some US states, including California, need everyone on a call to agree to recording. You only confirm this once, and you can withdraw it under Guardrails. The audio goes to Gnani to be transcribed, and DisputeDesk doesn't keep it.
