HeaderTitle not applying localized style from values-ar/styles.xml

HeaderTitle not applying localized style from values-ar/styles.xml

In my Android App I have added components for the arabic version like this:

In the styles.xml I defined:
<style name="HeaderImage">
<item name="android:background">#193660</item>
<item name="android:src">@drawable/logo_white_trans_96x96_300dpi</item>
<item name="android:scaleType">fitStart</item>
<item name="android:layout_width">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
</style>
<style name="HeaderTitle">
<item name="android:background">#193660</item>
<item name="android:layout_width">fill_parent</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">match_parent</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#ffffff</item>
<item name="android:textSize">25sp</item>
<item name="android:gravity">right|center_vertical</item>
<item name="android:paddingLeft">15dip</item>
</style>
When I launch the emulator (with arabic locale) the text alignment is
correct but all the styles are set to default. No Image is displaying and
it's just the standard gray bar.
The only difference in the values/styles.xml is the gravity "left". The
other files have been copied. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
