Whenever I use MaterialButton, I get the following exception in the xml preview:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: java.lang.ClassCastException
I have upgraded to android studio 3.4 and to com.google.android.material:material:1.1.0-alpha05
Version 1.0.0 works but any 1.1.x doesn't.
Is this a problem with the IDE or the library?

EDIT This happens only when the button style is not set OR the defaulted:
@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Button
Setting as unelevated style works for example, so as a work around I'm using the tools namespace to show unelevated button style.
Edit 2 the app theme parent is already correctly set as Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar. This is an IDE issue as it is running well on my emulator and device. I have also done a clear cache & invalidate, clean build, rebuild... (the standard things we do when faced with weird IDE problems)
Edit 3 Still no luck with the latest A.S. 3.4.1!
