CardCornerRadius is not clipping linear layout within view

I am trying to have images in my recycler view have rounded corners to look better. I looked online and found out I could not set the background to a cardview but I could set a background to a linear layout so that is what I did. In the design tab of Android Studio I can see that the cardview has rounded corners but when I run the app the corners are not rounded. I tried googling the problem for a few hours but I could not find an answer.

Here is the contrast on what I am seeing in Android studio and the emulator enter image description here

    style="@style/CustomCardViewStyle"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_marginStart="5dp"

    android:theme="@style/Theme.MaterialComponents.Light"
    app:cardBackgroundColor="@android:color/white"
    app:cardElevation="@dimen/cardview_default_elevation"
    app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"

I read some comments that suggest to move your linearlayout to have effects that you would like but I suggest to let your linearlayout and instead do like this:

  1. put some padding between your cardview and your linearlayout:

    app:cardUseCompatPadding="true"
android:padding="16dp"

    don't miss cardUseCompatPadding flag!

  2. put your corners radius and elevation like this:

    app:cardElevation="@dimen/cardview_elevation"
app:cardCornerRadius="@dimen/cardview_corners_radius"

  3. set cardBackground to white color and transparent color for the constraintLayout parent;

    app:cardBackgroundColor="@color/white" for cardview
android:background="@color/transparent" for parent layout

and you're all done.
