DiffUtil with Async callback only displays list once and doesn't update

I am using DiffUtil async callback to update my list. The problem is that it only displays the dataset once, at the first call. Later, when the dataset updates, the list only displays the items that were initially displayed. So the problem is that the dataset updates, but the list is stuck on its first state.(With the items that were initially created)

The dataset is being updated via a button click initiated by the user, this is how it looks:

   private void updateUsersList() {
        @Override
        public void onResponse(JSONArray response) { // the JSON ARRAY response of user ids ["uid1", "uid334", "uid1123"]

            for (int i = 0; i < response.length(); i++) {
                try {
                    String userKey = response.get(i).toString(); // the currently iterated user id
                    final DatabaseReference rootRef = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference();
                    DatabaseReference userKeyRef = rootRef.child("users").child(userKey); // reference to currently iterated user
                    ValueEventListener listener = new ValueEventListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
                        myDataset.add(new User(dataSnapshot.getKey(), dataSnapshot.child("imageUrl").getValue().toString())); //add new user: id and image url
                        mAdapter.updateList(myDataset); 
                   }
                   @Override
                   public void onCancelled(@NonNull DatabaseError databaseError) {
                   Log.d(TAG, databaseError.getMessage());
                   }
                  };
                  userKeyRef.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(listener);
              }
              catch (JSONException e) { Log.d(TAG, "message " + e); }
           }
   }

And this is my adapter using async DiffUtil:

public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter {

    private AsyncListDiffer<User> mAsyncListDiffer;

    public static class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {

        public TextView singleItemTextView;
        public ImageView singleItemImage;
        public View layout;
        public ConstraintLayout constraintLayout;

        public MyViewHolder(View v) {
            super(v);
            layout = v;
            singleItemImage = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.icon);
            singleItemTextView = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.singleitemtv);
            constraintLayout = (ConstraintLayout) v.findViewById(R.id.nbConstraintLayout);
        }
    }

    // Provide a suitable constructor (depends on the kind of dataset)
    public MyAdapter() {
        DiffUtil.ItemCallback<User> diffUtilCallback = new DiffUtil.ItemCallback<User>() {

            @Override
            public boolean areItemsTheSame(@NonNull User newUser, @NonNull User oldUser) {
                return newUser.getUserId().equals(oldUser.getUserId());
            }

            @Override
            public boolean areContentsTheSame(@NonNull User newUser, @NonNull User oldUser) {
                return newUser.equals(oldUser);
            }
        };
        mAsyncListDiffer = new AsyncListDiffer<>(this, diffUtilCallback);
    }

    // Create new views (invoked by the layout manager)
    @Override
    public MyAdapter.MyViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        View v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.nb_image_view, parent, false);
        MyViewHolder vh = new MyViewHolder(v);
        return vh;
    }

    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(final MyViewHolder holder, final int position) {
        User user = mAsyncListDiffer.getCurrentList().get(position);
        Uri userImage = user.getImageUrl();
        Log.d("test123", "user uri: " + userImage.toString());
        holder.singleItemTextView.setText(user.getUserId());

        Glide.with(holder.itemView.getContext() /* context */)
                .load(userImage)
                .into(holder.singleItemImage);

        holder.constraintLayout.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Context context = v.getContext();
                Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(), DisplayUserActivity.class);
                context.startActivity(intent);
            }
        });
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return mAsyncListDiffer.getCurrentList().size();
    }

    public void updateList(ArrayList<User> newList) {
        mAsyncListDiffer.submitList(newList);
    }

}

So why does my dataset update, but the list is stuck on first update only?
