There seems to be a bug in Android Material Design Chip: the chip text does not show when added in a RecyclerView item that's off the view port. When the RecyclerView is scrolled to show the item, the item's chip text is not visible, though the chip's color is correct. If the item is added to the RecyclerView within the view port, the chip text is visible, as expected.

```
<com.google.android.material.chip.Chip
                  android:id="@+id/chip"
                  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                  app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
                  app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
                  android:text="@{ obj.orderString() }"
                  android:textAppearance="?android:textAppearanceLarge"
                  style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Chip.Choice"
                  app:status="@{ obj }"
                  android:textColor="@color/colorNeutral"
                  android:textAlignment="center"
                  app:chipStartPadding="@dimen/default_padding"
                  app:chipEndPadding="@dimen/default_padding"
                  android:gravity="center_vertical|start"
                  android:enabled="false"
                  tools:text="1"
                  tools:checked="true"/>

```

Has anyone encountered something like this?
