This seems to be a bug that happens on specific Android versions. You can turn off the android:enterFadeDuration programmatically in Java code, by accessing the Selector with a StateListDrawable:

// Disable android:enterFadeDuration/exitFadeDuration on Android 4.2 only
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT == Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN_MR1) {
    StateListDrawable stateListDrawable =
            (StateListDrawable) animatedButton.getBackground();
    stateListDrawable.setEnterFadeDuration(0);
    stateListDrawable.setExitFadeDuration(0);
}
