ListView row layout height not being set

I want my rows to be 50dp high, but for some reason it will only wrap_content.

Here is my xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="50dp"
    android:background="@drawable/master_selector" >

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/icon"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="25dp"
        android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
        android:layout_marginTop="3dp"
        android:contentDescription="Category" >
    </ImageView>



    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/label"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
        android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
        android:text="@+id/label"
        android:textColor="#ebebeb"
        android:textSize="25sp" >
    </TextView>

</LinearLayout>

I cannot figure out WHY the 50dp is having no effect? It's on a regular ListView

Edit: Screenshot:

As you see, the rows are close together. The text is only 25sp (on regular text size).

enter image description here

Edit: Changing TextView height to 50dp and gravity to center_vertical fixes it.

The layout values of an inflated view can be easily forgotten in some implementations (Usually because they're added with a specified LayoutParam object as is the case in ListView).

You can fix this by adding one of the childrens heights to be 50dp which will correctly display.
