The problem is that emacs has three distinct colors - foreground,
background, and cursor.  You are setting the foreground and background
colors, while the cursor color remains default.  x-flip-color and -rv
both do the "right" thing of changing the cursor color also.  You
should either include an:

emacs*cursorColor: white

or, more properly:

emacs*reverseVideo: on
