Cards not spaced in Android 5.0, as they are in pre-lollipop

I'm using CardView as rows in a listview. The cards in Android 4.0 -4.4 are well spaced, just as desired, but in Andorid 5.0, they aren't.

Here are the screenshots:

For Android 5.0:

for pre-lollipop, and the way I want it:

Here's the code for the CardView:

<android.support.v7.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
                                xmlns:cardview="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
                                android:orientation="horizontal"
                                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                                android:stateListAnimator="@anim/anim"
                                android:layout_margin="5dp"
                                android:clickable="true"
                                cardview:cardElevation="5dp"
                                cardview:cardBackgroundColor="@color/WhiteSmoke"
                                cardview:cardCornerRadius="10dp"
                                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                                android:longClickable="true"
                                android:background="@android:drawable/dialog_holo_light_frame">

Here's the code for the listview these cards are a part of:

<ListView
    android:id="@android:id/list"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_below="@+id/toolbar"
    android:orientation="vertical">

What is it that's causing the cards to not be spaced on Android 5.0? I hope I've provided the information needed.

Thank you!

Okay, I solved the issue by adding :

cardview:cardUseCompatPadding="true"

You can read about it here - https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v7/widget/CardView.html#attr_android.support.v7.cardview:cardUseCompatPadding
