Action background does not change #58

Hi, I was using a custom background for ActionBar but when I add a custom action to my ActionBar like

actionBar.addAction(new FinishTagging());

where FinishTagging implements Action, the background of the area where the icon of this activity is shown still looks like the default one (which is red) even if I explicitly change it after the adding the activity with the statement below:

actionBar.setBackgroundColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.titlebackgroundcolor));

I wonder is it a known issue or is it just my fault?

Thanks in advance.
