Is there some case law that can be cited to prove only county ordinances affect 12031?
CA PC 12031(f) says:
I still maintain that the place has to be geographically specific, and can't simply be a non-geographic prohibition (e.g.shooting from a vehicle, since a vehicle is a "thing" and not a "place").

(Bold is my emphasis.)...loaded open carry is only prohibited in incorporated areas of california, and in portions of unincorporated areas where the County, and only the County, has prohibited shooting. That's important because in those areas the police have no power to seize gun owners to check their guns to see if they are loaded.

CA PC 12031(f) says:
To me "any" means any prohibition. It seems to me that the state could implement laws that prohibit discharge in unincorporated territory (e.g. discharge prohibition in the parking lot of a state-owned rest stop).(f) As used in this section, "prohibited area" means any place where it is unlawful to discharge a weapon.
