I have experienced same issue. I solved it by adding scroll listener that will wait until expected first visible item is drawn on the RecyclerView. You can bind other scroll listeners too, along this one. Expected first visible value is added to use it as threshold position when the SwipeRefreshLayout should be enabled in cases where you use header view holders.

public class SwipeRefreshLayoutToggleScrollListener extends RecyclerView.OnScrollListener {
        private List mScrollListeners = new ArrayList();
        private int mExpectedVisiblePosition = 0;

        public SwipeRefreshLayoutToggleScrollListener(SwipeRefreshLayout mSwipeLayout) {
            this.mSwipeLayout = mSwipeLayout;
        }

        private SwipeRefreshLayout mSwipeLayout;
        public void addScrollListener(RecyclerView.OnScrollListener listener){
            mScrollListeners.add(listener);
        }
        public boolean removeScrollListener(RecyclerView.OnScrollListener listener){
            return mScrollListeners.remove(listener);
        }
        public void setExpectedFirstVisiblePosition(int position){
            mExpectedVisiblePosition = position;
        }
        @Override
        public void onScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState) {
            super.onScrollStateChanged(recyclerView, newState);
            notifyScrollStateChanged(recyclerView,newState);
            LinearLayoutManager llm = (LinearLayoutManager) recyclerView.getLayoutManager();
            int firstVisible = llm.findFirstCompletelyVisibleItemPosition();
            if(firstVisible != RecyclerView.NO_POSITION)
                mSwipeLayout.setEnabled(firstVisible == mExpectedVisiblePosition);

        }

        @Override
        public void onScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy) {
            super.onScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);
            notifyOnScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);
        }
        private void notifyOnScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy){
            for(RecyclerView.OnScrollListener listener : mScrollListeners){
                listener.onScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);
            }
        }
        private void notifyScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState){
            for(RecyclerView.OnScrollListener listener : mScrollListeners){
                listener.onScrollStateChanged(recyclerView, newState);
            }
        }
    }

Usage:

SwipeRefreshLayoutToggleScrollListener listener = new SwipeRefreshLayoutToggleScrollListener(mSwiperRefreshLayout);
listener.addScrollListener(this); //optional
listener.addScrollListener(mScrollListener1); //optional
mRecyclerView.setOnScrollLIstener(listener);
