The thing is in "keyboards":

[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -lv -c keyboards /Default/Numlock  true

        OK, but you're over my head. Where is "keyboards"? Or should I be
asking where xfconf is?

[root@Hbsk4 ~]# cd /usr/share/system-config-keyboard
[root@Hbsk4 system-config-keyboard]# ls
keyboard_cli.py   keyboard_gui.pyo  system-config-keyboard.py
keyboard_cli.pyc  keyboard_tui.py   system-config-keyboard.pyc
keyboard_cli.pyo  keyboard_tui.pyc  system-config-keyboard.pyo
keyboard_gui.py   keyboard_tui.pyo
keyboard_gui.pyc  pixmaps
[root@Hbsk4 system-config-keyboard]#

As the logged-in user, try running

        xfconf-query -lv -c keyboards

and see what response you get. If you see something like

        /Default/Numlock false


then you can try:

        xfconf-query -c keyboards -p /Default/Numlock -s true

to set it to true. Here's a transcript of what I did:

[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -lv -c keyboards
/Default/Numlock  true
[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -c keyboards -p /Default/Numlock -s false
[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -lv -c keyboards
/Default/Numlock  false
[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -c keyboards -p /Default/Numlock -s true

This just demonstrates that it was set to "true". I set it to "false"
and verified it, then put it back to "true". I have no idea if setting
it to the other state will have any effect on your issue, but you can
try it. I don't believe numlock is set on my machine as my keypad does
cursor movement unless I actually push the NumLock key even though the
xfconf-query reports it as "true".
