Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnhandledAlertError) after dismissing the alert

Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnhandledAlertError) after dismissing the alert

We have a Cucumber scenario that looks like this:
@selenium
Scenario: I can be told that geolocation is unavailable
# features/home_page.feature:57
Given I am a visitor
#
features/step_definitions/authentication_steps.rb:5
When I visit the homepage
#
features/step_definitions/home_page_steps.rb:1
And I have declined geolocation permissions
#
features/step_definitions/home_page_steps.rb:14
And I click the geolocate button
#
features/step_definitions/home_page_steps.rb:18
Then I see an alert "Unable to determine your current location. Please
type an address instead." # features/step_definitions/web_steps.rb:104
The step I see an alert "(.+?)" is defined as:
Then(/^I see an alert "(.+?)"$/) do |content|
page.driver.browser.switch_to.alert.text.should == content
page.driver.browser.switch_to.alert.dismiss
end
For some reason, dismissing this alert doesn't suffice. The next scenario
in line always fails with:

`Before'
We've tried upgrading selenium-webdriver and capybara to no avail. The
only thing that has worked so far is to duplicate the dismiss line, which
feels gross but always gets rid of the dialog. There's definitely only one
dialog, so what gives?
