Can't close ActionOverflow directly - python-2.7

Question

I have 2 Screens in my app (ScreenManager). One of them has ActionBar with ActionOverflow. I have button that should change current Screen and close ActionOverflow, but the Screen changes and ActionOverflow remains open until
I tap the screen in another place.
Here some code:
# .kv
ScreenManager:
id: ScrMan
Screen:
name: 'scr1'
BoxLayout:
orientation: 'vertical'
ActionBar:
ActionView:
ActionOverflow:
id: ActOv
#some buttons
ActionButton:
text: 'some text'
on_press:
ActOv.is_open = False
#I also tried: is_open = False; self.parent.is_open = False; with the same result
ScrMan.current = 'scr2'
Screen:
name: 'scr2'
#some cool stuff here
How I can change the screen and close ActionOverflow list?

Edit: As you have version 1.9.1 (or older master branch, there was this fix missing. Changing actionbar.py in <python dir>/Lib/site-packages/kivy/uix/actionbar.py brings the default behavior to the old version.
The dropdown should close on its own by default. Maybe there's something wrong in your code e.g. placing ActionButton into ActionOverflow as a widget or maybe something else. Try this:
from kivy.lang import Builder
from kivy.base import runTouchApp
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
Builder.load_string('''
#:import Clock kivy.clock.Clock
#:import partial functools.partial
<Test>:
ScreenManager:
id: ScrMan
Screen:
name: 'scr1'
ActionBar:
pos_hint: {'top': 1}
ActionView:
ActionPrevious:
ActionOverflow:
ActionButton:
text: 'some very very long text'
ActionButton:
text: 'some very very long text'
ActionButton:
text: 'some very very long text'
ActionButton:
text: 'some very very long text'
ActionButton:
text: 'some very very long text'
ActionButton:
text: 'try this button!'
on_press:
ScrMan.current = 'scr2'
Clock.schedule_once(partial(root.change_scr, ScrMan), 1)
Screen:
name: 'scr2'
Label:
text: 'second'
''')
class Test(BoxLayout):
def change_scr(self, man, *dt):
man.current = man.previous()
runTouchApp(Test())
