I'm recieving a similar error on Arch Linux. Curiously, this is only happening on my desktop computer. My laptop loads the program just fine

The root cause is that lightdm-settings expects at least one GTK theme to be installed. I've submitted a PR, but for now you can just install a GTK theme and it will work, or you can patch /usr/lib/lightdm-settings/SettingsWidget.py yourself (it's a one-line change).
