Just because someone "wrote themes for the producer" (not even at his request, from what i can gather above!!) doesn't mean it was a "rejected" score.
Sounds more like someone wrote some demos for the film, and didn't get the job!

I read somewhere that the "Images of Dune" suite was in fact a demo for Lynch's film. The other "bonus" tracks were from a Jade Warrior album.

Some more interesting trivia:
Mid-1979
Dino De Laurentiis hires Ridley Scott, fresh from his sucess on Alien (1979) to direct Dune. Ridley Scott moves into Pinewood Studios, England to begin work. HR Giger was hired to work with the director on storyboards and illustrations. Ridley Scott also hired Rudolph Wurlitzer [writer of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973)] to help him write the script. After 8 months they would have what they considered to be a workable draft.
October/November 1979
Dino De Laurentiis, Frank Herbert and Ridley Scott meet in London to read Frank Herbert's script.
July 1980
Ridley Scott's production is in its early phases, based at Pinewood Studios, England. HR Giger to draw & storyboard Rudolph Wurlitzer to script
Late August 1980
Frank Herbert reads Rudolph Wurlitzer 1st draft, and is not happy. He believes the plot has been over simplified.
Late 1980
The 3rd draft of the Rudolph Wurlitzer's script contains incestuous relationship between Paul and his mother Jessica, and Alia would be both Paul's daughter and sister! Ridley Scott leaves Dune to work on Blade Runner.
September 1980
The production is shut down, with the projected $50 million budget, and script difficulties proving too much.
