onTouch() not called when dragging item

Question

I am trying to drag a recyclerview item after long pressing it to activate dragging. However, the onTouch() of the parent layout of the recyclerview item is not being called. I read from a post also asking about their onTouch not being called, and I set the android:clickable and android:focusable properties of the CardView (the only direct child element inside the parent ConstraintLayout which i attached an OnTouchListener to) to false, but the OnTouch is still not called.
