Android ImageButton in ListView blocking onItemClick()

I'm trying to add a ListView that has an ImageButton in it. Everything works except my onItemClick() isn't called. I've googled around and searched on StackOverflow to find suggestions of

android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"

and

android:focusable="false"

I've tried both of these but neither work. This my layout file.

<?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="@dimen/listview_item_height"
    android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:paddingStart="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:paddingEnd="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/song_title"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textSize="@dimen/listview_item_title_text_size"
            android:textColor="@color/text_primary"
            android:ellipsize="end"
            android:singleLine="true"
            android:lines="1" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/song_artist"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textSize="@dimen/listview_item_subtitle_text_size"
            android:textColor="@color/text_secondary"
            android:ellipsize="end"
            android:singleLine="true"
            android:lines="1" />

    </LinearLayout>

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/song_duration"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" />

    <ImageButton
        android:id="@+id/overflow_menu"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
        android:padding="8dp"
        android:background="?android:selectableItemBackground"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_action_overflow"
        android:scaleX="0.75"
        android:scaleY="0.75" />

</LinearLayout>

Then my onItemClick() simply logs the id of the element clicked.

@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id)
{
    long id = adapter.getItemId(position);
    Log.d(TAG, id + "");
}

I never get the output in the console though. I do get the selectable background when I click on the item though. I did not get that until adding "blocksDescendants" to the code. Any help is appreciated as I've spent a bit of time on this already.

You can use imagsView instead of imageButton and do onClick actions when list item is clicked

Or

You set onClickListener after layout is inflated in view adapter. Read this: http://androidforbeginners.blogspot.it/2010/03/clicking-buttons-in-listview-row.html?m=1 Also this should be set like this to let system listen for clicks:

ListView focusable android:focusable="true"

Button not focusable android:focusable="false"

Or

You can use this in xml. On click, it will look for your method in same activity. Doesn't work for fragments. android:onClick="myMethod"

Have you tried using an ImageView instead? That way by default it won't intercept your clicks.

Or you could try playing with onInterceptTouchEvent. http://developer.android.com/training/gestures/viewgroup.html
