My status is on US, so I have no first-hand experience here, but as someone with *Gold status on AC and LH (rather than US or UA), you should indeed have access to US Clubs even if you are traveling domestically. It doesn't seem fair that US and UA don't extend this same benefit to their own elites, but they wouldn't sell very many club memberships if they did.
From the Star Alliance webpage:
Star Alliance Gold card holders and one guest, have access to any lounge that is identified with a Star Alliance Gold lounge sign when departing on a Star Alliance flight. Note: United Airlines' Premier Executive and Premier Executive 1K customers and US Airways' Chairman Preferred and Gold Preferred customers have access to U.S. domestic United Red Carpet Club and US Airways Club locations only when they present a ticket or boarding pass for a same-day international flight.
