Android Material TextInputLayout error message is displayed behinde Material TextInputEditText child

Iam currently creating a Android UI with Material components. In my activity i use the error feature of the com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout-component.

The problem is that if to many components show an error the error messages is not displayed correctly. It looks like the message is behind the material.textfield.TextInputEditText, which is the child of the TextInputLayout. Please look at the screenshot for clarification.

Screenshot

Any guesses?

I think you accidentally connected the wrong dots of the constraint layout. Compare these lines:

android:id="@+id/layout_Category"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@id/layout_ExpireDate"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@id/layout_Price">
<!--            app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@id/layout_Price"-->
<!--            app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@id/layout_ExpireDate"-->

It works on my PC. But ofc i don't have your strings and image. I added some more margin too.
