RecyclerView CardView Bug

See original GitHub issue

I’m using the Kotlin Builder (ViewBinding) way to init the recyclerView, When trying to bind my layout with a cardView, it won’t respect the match_parent width, its always wrap content The strange thing is, it worked with a normal RecyclerView, pretty sure it’s a problem from the lib, please take a look

here is the layout of the single Item

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
