I'm developing an application where I'm using new design support library's navigation view controller for drawer menu. Everything is working fine. I've set items for navigation view using app:menu attribute. Item's are perfectly displayed. Now i'm adding app:actionLayout for those item's and it's also getting added but the problem is it's getting displayed at right side in the view.
My Activity XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">
    <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
        android:id="@+id/toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
        android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
        app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay">
        <afour.com.uniapp.customwidgets.CustomTextView
            android:id="@+id/text_toolbarTitle"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:gravity="start"
            android:text="@string/app_name"
            android:textColor="@android:color/white"
            android:textSize="20sp"
            app:FontName="@string/type_face_splash" />
    </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
    <FrameLayout
        android:id="@+id/frame_content"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_below="@id/toolbar" />
        </RelativeLayout>
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
    android:id="@+id/navigation_view"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="start"
    android:background="@android:color/holo_green_dark"
    android:paddingTop="20dp"
    app:headerLayout="@layout/navigation_header_layout"
    app:paddingStart="0dp"
    app:itemBackground="@android:color/holo_green_light"
    app:itemTextColor="@android:color/white"
    app:menu="@menu/main_menu" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
My menu file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<item
    android:id="@+id/nav_about"
    android:title="@string/aboutus"
    app:showAsAction="never" />
<item
    android:id="@+id/nav_logout"
    app:actionLayout="@layout/logout_item_layout"
    app:showAsAction="collapseActionView" />
</menu>
my action layout file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ImageButton
    android:layout_width="60dp"
    android:layout_height="60dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
    android:layout_marginStart="10dp"
    android:background="@android:color/transparent"
    android:contentDescription="@string/aboutus"
    android:padding="05dp"
    android:src="@android:drawable/ic_menu_help" />
<afour.com.uniapp.customwidgets.CustomTextView
    android:id="@+id/text_logout"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
    android:layout_marginStart="20dp"
    android:gravity="start"
    android:text="@string/logout"
    android:textColor="@android:color/white"
    android:textSize="20sp"
    app:FontName="@string/type_face_regular" />
</LinearLayout>
PFA of the issue 
In your code I see you don't have a title in the item with the actionLayout, but now Android requires it. I set it to @null and it fixed the design:
<item
    android:id="@+id/nav_logout"
    title:"@null"
    app:actionLayout="@layout/logout_item_layout"
    app:showAsAction="collapseActionView" />
