Fixed it by installing !pip install -U opencv-python-headless==4.4.0.44 before installing albumentations
It looks like the problem is related to uploading a new release of OpenCV to PyPI and should be resolved automatically when all wheels with the latest version of OpenCV will be uploaded - https://github.com/skvark/opencv-python/issues/411. In the meantime, a workaround from @akatasonov should help.
