Android Button background is not recognizing/using the drawable

I want to add a background to a button, as I have already done several times. I have a drawable resource file with the appropriate background. However, if I link this, it will not be accepted, instead only one color will be used as the background. I had the suspicion that it could be a mistake in my Styles.xml but nothing is called too colored in these. What can be the reasons why Android Studio does not recognize a background or where could I have defined a general theme of how buttons should look? I can't remember having put on something like that. I tried something similar with an EditText, I had no problems here, so I think it is a specific button problem. Also if I change the background color to a plain whit it is not changing anything and still showing a dark blue.

Update: If I change the preview style (upper middel of the preview) to DialogStyle the button background works. How can that be if there is nothing defined in der styles?

Update: I added a new version of my button this time initializing the background in a extra style. Result is that it is still not showing the right color. I also tried it with black but nothing happend.

Thanks for any help.
