Hmm I don't think the version of aws-vault has any bearing on this. Specifying the mfa_serial in multiple places is required for aws-vault to determine if chaining is possible

Sure thing, I got that from extrapolating from https://github.com/99designs/aws-vault/pull/1101/files/a03c62bdcff2a324adb364001900fd4a9f06ae8b#diff-58a825c70bccfbe691d7ddbddb133275f4f657de6aeb4a502fa9fce279f8bf8dR414, but I can remove the changes to this line if useful.

I've gotten AWS Vault to work using a Yubikey and a virtual TOTP device, using AWS' new feature for multiple MFA devices. I've updated the documentation to be consistent with this new capability, and have explained how to get both a Yubikey and a Virtual TOTP device working with the same IAM User.
