I spent several days searching for a universal solution. My toolbar working with android menu and nav icon.

At first, you need create custom toolbar class. This class must have calculate title centered positions (paddings):

    class CenteredToolbar @JvmOverloads constructor(context: Context, attrs: AttributeSet? = null, defStyleAttr: Int = 0)
    : Toolbar(context, attrs, defStyleAttr) {

    init {
        addOnLayoutChangeListener(object : View.OnLayoutChangeListener {
            override fun onLayoutChange(v: View?, left: Int, top: Int, right: Int, bottom: Int, oldLeft: Int, oldTop: Int, oldRight: Int, oldBottom: Int) {
                val titleTextView = findViewById(R.id.centerTitle)

                val x = titleTextView.x.toInt()
                val x2 = x + titleTextView.width

                val fullWidth = width
                val fullCenter = fullWidth / 2

                val offsetLeft = Math.abs(fullCenter - x)
                val offsetRight = Math.abs(x2 - fullCenter)
                val differOffset = Math.abs(offsetLeft - offsetRight)

                if (offsetLeft > offsetRight) {
                    titleTextView.setPadding(differOffset, 0, 0, 0)
                } else if (offsetRight > offsetLeft) {
                    titleTextView.setPadding(0, 0, differOffset, 0)
                }

                removeOnLayoutChangeListener(this)
            }
        })
    }

    override fun setTitle(resId: Int) = getTitleView().setText(resId)

    override fun setTitle(title: CharSequence?) = getTitleView().setText(title)

    fun getTitleView(): TextView = findViewById(R.id.centerTitle)

}

Secondly, you need create layout toolbar:

That's all
