Disclosure indicator in tableView cell isn't showing

I have added cell.accessoryType = .disclosureIndicator in my cellForRowAt delegate, and I have also ticked it in the viewController UI options under "accessory". I also added margins to the tableView so that it's 0 in relation to the parent view (that is, the device).

I even set cell.accessoryView?.tintColor = UIColor.black in case something was wrong with the color. But, still, I can't see the little arrow on the right side of the cell. I'm using a default cell. And in other viewControllers that I have it works, but in this one it doesn't.

I checked the width for both the cell and the tableview and they are both 375.

It does work if I add a custom image instead, like this:

let img = UIImage.init(named: "arrow")
cell.accessoryView = UIImageView.init(image: img)

But, I want the standard arrow.

Any more tips on what could be the issue here?

If you're targeting iOS 13 this won't work. You can verify on iOS12 but I've faced this very problem earlier this year and the solution was to add a UIButton to the cell constraining it to the trailing side of the screen. 

         let disclosureButton = UIButton()
        disclosureButton.setImage(UIImage(named: "arrow"), for: .normal)
        cell.addSubview(disclosureButton)
        disclosureButton.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        disclosureButton.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: cell.trailingAnchor, constant: -10).isActive = true
        disclosureButton.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: cell.centerYAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
        disclosureButton.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 25).isActive = true
        disclosureButton.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 25).isActive = true
