Change background color in Search View Android

Hey I want to add background color in search view in android. But I am trying to add selector but it's not working. Also I tried this Stackoverflow but it's not working

Search.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <androidx.appcompat.widget.SearchView
        android:id="@+id/searchView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginStart="10dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
        android:layout_marginEnd="10dp"
        android:background="@drawable/search_edit_text_rounded_corner"
        android:theme="@style/SearchViewTheme"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:closeIcon="@drawable/ic_cancel"
        app:searchIcon="@drawable/ic_search" />

</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

styles.xml

<style name="SearchViewTheme" parent="Widget.AppCompat.SearchView">
        <item name="android:textColorHint">@color/hint</item>
        <item name="android:editTextColor">@color/grey</item>
        <item name="android:fontFamily">@font/source_sans_pro_light</item>
        <item name="android:textSize">@dimen/text_size</item>
        <item name="queryHint">@string/edit_text_hint</item>
        <item name="iconifiedByDefault">false</item>
</style>

search_edit_text_rounded_corner.xml

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/search_edit_text_selected" android:state_selected="true" />
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/search_edit_text_selected" android:state_pressed="true" />
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/search_edit_text_default" />
</selector>

search_edit_text_selected.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <solid android:color="@color/red" />
    <stroke
        android:width="1dp"
        android:color="@color/red" />
    <corners android:radius="4dp" />
</shape>

search_edit_text_default.xml

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <solid android:color="@color/off_white" />
    <stroke
        android:width="1dp"
        android:color="@color/cloudy" />
    <corners android:radius="4dp" />
</shape>

Actual Output
