That would be very unusual. But if some people heard one thing and others heard another then, yes, I think the dealer's recollection would be much more significant.
In this case nobody heard villain say "fold" because he didn't say it. The dealer assumed villain folded because he threw his cards forward. Or maybe he did mis-hear what he said. But in any case, had the dealer checked or had OP asked him to ask the player, the player would have repeated what he said (assuming he really did say call) and hopefully, paying attention, the dealer would have gotten it right.
In my case the Floor was dealing with people who said they didn't hear him say anything vs me and the Dealer who heard him say "all in". And of course the Floor in my case didn't "take a vote". He chose not to ask anyone if they heard anything so he was just listening to people who were volunteering info.
After the Floor left, the person sitting next to villain said "I heard him say all in" but the reason he didn't speak up was that he wasn't asked...
So yes, I think the Floor should be asking everyone at the table what they heard.
