Kotlin 创建首选项屏幕时找不到androidx.preference.PreferenceScreen

After following this tutorial to create a screen for preferences, there seems to be a problem with inflating the class 'androidx.preference.PreferenceScreen'. Why is it not found when my preferences have been declared inside the res/xml folder and the necessary dependency has been added to this project?

My app's minSdkVersion is 24.
