How do I change the 'after sign in path' for a user that has been authenticated with a token with Devise?

Question

I have overwritten after_sign_in_path_for in my application controller as follows:

application_controller.rb

def after_sign_in_path_for resource
  case resource
    when User
        blah
    when Admin
        blah
  end
end

This works when the user signs in via the sign in page. But after_sign_in_path_for method doesn't get called at all when a user is signed in via Devise's Token Authenticatable module. The user gets taken to the root_path . How can I change this?

I'm using Rails 3.2.0, ruby 1.9.3p194 and Devise 2.1.2.

I would advise you to take a look at Devise's own ConfirmationsController , it looks to me like its calling after_sign_in_path_for, and the resource would be user I would assume. But it may take overriding that Controller with your own, so you could log the resource before you'll know for sure.
