    Sync shouldn’t really matter, unless you’re using a hotp code as opposed to a certificate or TOTP code.

    TOTP being temporal, is based on UNIX time, and a seed key. A certificate will be challenged, which will require a challenge and reply all cryptographically encrypted. It’s not something that’s necessarily stored in some kind of sync, or rolling codes.

    I’m not familiar enough with keepass to say what it’s supposed to use with the yubikey in order to work. There’s a few other methods that I’m sure that keepass could leverage to perform the authentication, so I’m not entirely sure what could be the problem.
