Solution

Add -> app:actionViewClass="android.widget.ImageButton"

<item
    android:id="@+id/menuItemSearch"
    android:icon="@drawable/icongel_search"
    android:iconTintMode="src_atop"
    android:title="@string/toolbarSearchIcon"
    android:visible="false"
    app:iconTint="@color/primary"
    app:showAsAction="always"
    app:actionViewClass="android.widget.ImageButton"/>

Then

menu.findItem(R.id.menuItemSearch).apply {
                            val searchIcon = this.actionView as ImageButton
                            searchIcon.apply {
                                setImageResource(R.drawable.search)
                                setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.primary), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP)
                                contentDescription = getString(R.string.toolbarSearchIcon)
                                setBackgroundColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.transparent))
                                ViewCompat.setAccessibilityDelegate(
                                    this,
                                    object : AccessibilityDelegateCompat() {
                                        override fun onInitializeAccessibilityNodeInfo(host: View, info: AccessibilityNodeInfoCompat) {
                                            super.onInitializeAccessibilityNodeInfo(host, info)
                                            info.addAction(
                                                AccessibilityNodeInfoCompat.AccessibilityActionCompat(
                                                    AccessibilityNodeInfoCompat.ACTION_CLICK, getString(R.string.toolbarSearchIcon)
                                                )
                                            )
                                        }
                                    }
                                )
                            }
                        }
