I pretty much took it as.. Miles was laughing because he thinks Jaune's true symbol is funny, maybe the backstory behind it or the way it'll be revealed is funny to him. Miles' laughing fit was over by the time he and Monty briefly talked about how they had put his true symbol on something else he wore (his pajamas).

And who says that his true symbol is his own symbol? It could be the symbol for one side of his family (his mother's side, maybe?), while the rainbow on his shield is from the other side of his family (father's).

Even if it's not, like SYUTK said: It could've been given to him when he was a little kid or a baby, and his parents put it on his clothes. He didn't have a shirt that doesn't have his symbol on it, so he hid it with the breastplate of the armor he stole. His parents also put it on his pajamas, and he can't really hide the one on his pajamas, but no one really suspects that the symbol on his cute little onesie pajamas is significant in any way, so it works out for him.

@HazelQuill: That can easily just be "This is the symbol that he's using in the show, and we don't want to plaster his hidden symbol all over everything before it's revealed in the show."
