On Android devices with kitkat (osversion 4.4.2, 4.4.4, devices are LG Flex, S4, and XAOMI m4) I am unable to switch to webview. See logs :

I am using Appium v 1.5.2 and Appium was installed through npm.
WebView.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(true); is set in the app
The following code makes the switch:
private void changeContext(int context) {
Set<String> contextNames = driver.getContextHandles();
driver.context((String) contextNames.toArray()[context]);
}
I have tried adding an action wait/thread sleep before and I have tried adding a TouchAction to get focus before switching context and neither made a difference in finding the webview.
