r - TwitteR setup_twitter_oauth() failing

I was following the vignette for the package, updated and loaded all necessary packages, seemed like it would be a pretty straight-forward process to authenticate. Instead, I get an error

> setup_twitter_oauth(consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, access_secret)
[1] "Using direct authentication"
Error in check_twitter_oauth() : OAuth authentication error:
This most likely means that you have incorrectly called setup_twitter_oauth()'

My paraphrased and redacted program looks more-or-less like this.

library("twitteR")
download.file(url="http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem", destfile="cacert.pem") #read this was necessary for Windows machines
consumer_key <- 'abc'
consumer_secret <- 'abc'
access_token <- '123-abc'
access_secret <- 'abc'
setup_twitter_oauth(consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, access_secret)

I read a lot of the other SO questions on this topic, nothing solved my issue (most of them used the old authentication process anyway). I'm trying to create a wordcloud following this tutorial.

Just (install and) load the package 'base64enc'.
