What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Espresso 2.0 on os x

Code:

onView(withId(R.id.fragment_vote_pause_btn)).check(matches(isEnabled()));

Well according to the espresso logs your button is disabled and actually not 
visible at all.  So the matcher works as expected.

I am using isEnabled matcher quite a lot and have never seen any problems with 
it.  

Try taking a screenshot right before the isEnabled check.

It also possible that your button is animating in when espresso performs it 
check. In this case it is recommended to disable the animation in the 
dev.options of your device.

Seems to be working as intended.
