The standard buttons also have this behaviour. The problem could be the background color from the button or from the parent element. If the color is white, transparent or not set no ripple is not working.

Looking at this some more, I see the following with each of the buttons:

• no background => "use default OS background" - so for image buttons, the OS does not have a ripple
• transparent => this has a ripple, but it is not visible since the ripple is white and appears under the image
• white => this has a ripple but it is not visible since the ripple is white and appears under the image
• color => the white ripple is visible and under the image.

Since ImageButton has no ripple so it feels wrong, I will make sure it gets a ripple if no background is set.
