If you're using a light theme like "One Half Light", I believe you need to set the vim color scheme to match. For example, try using :colorscheme peachpuff in vim. That should make the visual line visible.

That said, I think vim might be able to do this automatically if it detects the terminal is using a light theme, but it probably relies on color querying sequences which we don't yet support (see #3718).
