Assuming your sitemap is not containing any errors, you may simply need to wait. Google Search Console doesn't always show all updates after sitemap is submitted - some updates are delayed and mearly queued. That said, sitemap for google is a merely a suggestion of the website structure and they may choose not to index pages based on multiple factors.
