Capybara::NotSupportedByDriverError on integration test with capybara-webkit

I am trying to write an integration test using Capybara and capybara-webkit. I am stuck on trying to confirm an alert dialog. The documentation for capybara-webkit says to set Capybara.javascript_driver = :webkit which I have done, but I don't see how this would affect Capybara::page.driver, which I think is supposed to respond to accept_alert:

def test_update_key
  Capybara.javascript_driver = :webkit
  visit account_path accounts(:pending_account)

  click_link "edit_account_key"
  page.accept_alert "Would you like to edit this account key?" do # error on this line
    click_button('OK')
  end
end

this code gives me the following error:

Capybara::NotSupportedByDriverError Exception: Capybara::Driver::Base#accept_modal

I am currently using rails (4.0.13), capybara (2.4.4), capybara-webkit (1.4.1)

I don't know what Capybara.javascript_driver = :webkit is supposed to do, but it didn't do anything for me. I finally resolved the issue by putting Capybara.current_driver = :webkit in the top of my test.

However, webkit was still unable to accept the alert; I just changed the driver to Selenium for now, as that runs without issues. I had wanted to use webkit because it's headless, and reportedly faster, but I don't have a lot of tests written yet, so speed isn't an issue at this point. May have to revisit later.
