Thank you for answering. The problem is not with list item view itself. I do everything you are talking about: I created my custom adapter, which returns my custom list item views, which extend LinearLayout and contain a number of widgets inside. However with Adapter.new/getView() I can control only view, however, adapter is not responsible for selection highlight box painting.
If you look at the the sample I mentioned above, you'll see the same. It uses its own adapter (SpeechListAdapter), its own list item view (SpeechView), but highlight bar is approx. twice larger than list item view. I tried to use just a TextView as a list item view and played with styles a little bit. When I used TextAppearance_Large or TextAppearance_Medium style for, then highlight bar had exactly the same height as list view item (TextView) did. But once I switched to TextAppearance_Small - TextView got smaller, whereas selection highlight bar did not. So my question was about selected item highlight, not the list item view. BTW, thank you for links to nice Android resources.
