~/.Xresources does not work here (Stretch); ~/.Xdefaults does.
I've never quite found out what conditions cause either of them to work.
This is my situation:

To start my openbox WM, from the console I type:

   $ ob

That starts /usr/local/bin/ob, containing:

   #! /bin/sh
   startx /usr/local/ob-session --

/usr/local/ob-session contains a bunch of applications I want to run
with openbox, then starts openbox itself:

   #! /bin/sh
   /usr/bin/unclutter -idle 2 &
   /usr/bin/xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap &
   /usr/bin/xset -dpms &
   /usr/bin/xset s off &
   /usr/bin/xbindkeys &
   /usr/bin/xsetroot -solid rgb:64/80/84
   exec /usr/bin/openbox
