Highlighting @gvdhoorn's previous suggestion (for others that come across this issue) that the issue may be related to locales.
Some rviz users have encountered a similar issue on newer ubuntu/debian versions e.g. ROS Lunar on Ubuntu Artful or ROS Melodic on Ubuntu Bionic (see for example: https://github.com/ros-visualization/rviz/issues/1249).
If that's the underlying issue, modifying the following environment variable will fix it:
export LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8".

Highlighting Edit (2019-09-09): according to the latest comments on ros/urdfdom_headers#45 (specifically this one), the update to urdfdom_headers with the fix for non-US locales should be released for Ubuntu Bionic.
After installing the latest updates for Bionic overriding LC_NUMERIC should no longer be necessary.
