#1 From Build menu (of your Android Studio), click Rebuild Project option.

#2 Then once rebuild completes, go to File > Invalidate Caches / Restart... and Click on Invalidate an Restart button.

This really works for me.

#1 Rebuild is required, because Android-Studio does simply rely solely on Gradle’s build-result (without static-analysis support, at least at time of writing, 2022).

#2 Clearing cache is required, because the previous build-result (before above rebuild) may be indexed, which makes Android Studio ignore latest Gradle build-result
(this is a very good speed optimization, but a very bad Developer-experience as well).

There can sometimes be other reasons too, which is why there are many other answers posted here.
