How to scrollToPosition RecyclerView with HORIZONTAL LinearLayoutManager

Question

This code works as intended:

    LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this,
            LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL, false);
    mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);
    mRecyclerView.scrollToPosition(2);

The positioning and scroll are vertical and third item is displayed.

Now, if in the above code VERTICAL is replaced with HORIZONTAL, items are displayed horizontally and scroll is horizontal (as intended), but setScrollToPosition(2) doesn't work anymore.
