Presumably Ebay will be using the Australian government's " document verification service" which can only verify documents issued by the Australian government or various state governments ( although not all forms of ID will verify). If this is the case then the driver's licence will need to be an Aussie one. You could use an overseas passport as long as your Visa is current, but you would need to use the passport used in your visa application ( even if it has since been replaced) . The DVS algorithm is very finicky so details need to be entered exactly.
Maybe try Ebay's help chat or call-back services and see if they can help?
